Flower shots are something I have mixed feelings about: I don't much like *looking* at flower photos, but I really like photographing flowers (which inevitably leaves me with a bunch of photos I'm not really interested in looking at, but if I were rational I wouldn't be on this list now would I?). I love working with the organic shapes and textures, especially getting in close enough to make them almost abstract. here's another (of the same plant in my previous shot, actually): http://www.robertstech.com/temp/7d300216.jpg Don't worry, I don't like taking *or* viewing cat photos. -- Mark Roberts Photography and writing www.robertstech.com

Another flower for mike http://www.usefilm.com/showphoto.php?id=72 I find flowers disturbing. Especially in color. I think it was the French painter Edgar Degas who wrote that he was disturbed by the visual cacaphony of bouquets of flowers. He seldom painted them, with one famous exception, a painting that showed a vase of flowers on a table and a woman off to the right. But he said he found this painting distressing rather than pretty. Ancient memories here, I could be wrong. --Mike
