Thanks, Lee. I really had to look twice to see what was happening with that negative space!

...wonderful Nancy -- there's an almost metallic quality to it; pinwheel-like. TERRIFIC. Original. l/f
Nancy Kane Chapman replied:
It's nice to know that there are happy accidents in photography as there are in art. I was amazed myself when I was reviewing these pictures from last year.

Many thanks, Dora for featuring this view of a magnolia in "Visions of Spring". I'm always grateful for this extra notice and appreciative of the time it takes to manage and administer this group.

This was so unplanned. Those little peeps of green!!! The sharp forms created by the soft shape of the petals.
