Hi Stephen,
Special POV so close to the ground, this gives a feeling of take off and fly, because the photo is very sharp until the horizon. Beautiful warm light on the plant. I'm trying to learn from the technical facts you give. The focal lenght is probably what makes the photo special. you are very talented!

Hello Stephen,

It is a super picture you are offering us today! I like the little violet flowers with the immense blue sky at bg! The burren seems to have no end! The big rock bring another artistic element in the picture! Excellent pov and composition! Great picture and TFS.

Hi Stephan,
Superb landscape shot! I really like the composition here. Spot on exposure has rendered beautiful colors throughout the entire scene. Nice sharp detail with great DOF. Excellent camera work!

As a backpacker I've always felt something compelling about the flowers that manage to survive in these stark and harsh environments. I'm not sure if that's what you had in mind when you shot it, but that feeling comes to me looking at it... Something about the flash of bright color against the grey hard rock and the wispy clouds in the sky (the shot souldn't nearly work as well with puffy clouds, nor, I think, even with a clear blue sky). Well done!
Cheers,
Mike

The Burren, such a wonderful and distinctive place. I really like the sky in this picture. It stands out so very well and really adds that something to the rest of the picture. so stark and harsh, it matches the environment so well.
