Ciao Silvio,
nonostante il freddo l'abbondanza di quest'anno si sta protraendo, fatte le debite proporzioni, anche nel mese di ottobre, lo stesso fiore di Scabiosa č ancora in buono stato; composizione molto gradevole con ottima nitidezza e colori delicati.
Grazie e complimenti
Ciao Maurizio

A great photo, Silvio!
Vivid colours that are really eye-catching are a great aspect to have in a photo and this one has it in bags!
Excellent DOF and BG.
Great POV too.
The crop is a bit tight on the left and top but this is still a fantastic photo.

Well done,

Joe
