Re: Red Splendor

I love this, I like the original border and I like the sense of completion the final leaf gives so I wouldn't change the original. I am afraid I haven't got a clue what the blue patches are that Sue is seeing, they are not showing on my monitor.

I think this works really nicely so am happy just as it is (the muted border is so mute it is pointless, it isn't doing anything any more). Maybe the red is a touch over saturated in the picture itself or it could be just the contrast is a bit high. Other than that I like it.

My only negative point would be this Paul: you have shown several pictures of flora and you are tending to opt for the same format each time, i.e. black background, diagonal positioning, clean lines....

Nothing wrong with that as the images are attractive but if this was an exhibition, people would be bored stiff after the first few. Perhaps time to get adventurous and see about some different compositions, more complementary coloured backgrounds, etc? Go on, get radical <g>

Cheers,
Rob
