Same Thistle...
Uploaded: October 07, 2006
...Different angle. I moved about 30 degrees to the left from yesterday's shot and it made a big difference.
Adjusted in PS.
Have a nice day!

Thank you Tracey and Susie! #3423552Carolyn J. Connolly October 08, 2006
Len, this thistle shot is R-E-A-L-L-Y beautiful, too - but I think I still prefer the other one a LITTLE more!! I just LOVE the backlighting and dark background in it!! :o)They were both VERY nicely shot though...considering you were operating within a reasonably short time frame - LOL!! ;o) #3423864
