I like these examples, VJ. The daffodil shot is interesting when you crop it like that.

Great examples of thirds. I just dabble in photography, and I’ve never really paid attention to thirds vertically, thanks for the tip! There is something about the daffodil shot and I’m not sure if it is that one leaf that defies the principal and is laying horizontally trying to reach back into the other third!

I’m glad you share the fascination for that shot too, Heather. Thinking I might try to paint this one.

Great photos VJ! Although daffodils are my favorite flowers, the thistles are really what caught my attention. There’s something so interesting about the juxtaposition of those seemingly dead stalks of thistles with the fresh green leaves behind them. Hope you’re doing well sweet friend!

Ugh…. I’m so sorry VJ! I don’t understand what’s going on with that. I’ll get in my settings and see if there’s something funky going on in there…. Have a wonderful weekend!
