Lovely pic, but I’m happier when it’s warmer!

Worth getting up for.

Clearly not taken recently. Far too sunny.

Beautiful.

The steel obelisk in the Hohewald park. It's technically the gnomon of a huge sun dial.

I’d consider loosing the frame on the left. It breaks the symmetry and takes away from the affect.

New day on the east coast :).

Another IR flower pic, this one in a more controlled light environment using strobes (as opposed to the previous pic I posted where I used a flash hand held--the camera was on a tripod and I held the flash manually in various positions while triggering the camera with a remote).

For this pic, there was some soft light coming from a strobe camera left and some harsh light coming from another strobe positioned behind and below. As an aside, standard flashes/strobes emit light in the IR band so you don't need special lights to shoot in IR.
