Hola José Miguel,
Que hermosa el ramillete de flores que nos presentas!
Me gusta mucho, -como siempre- la suavidad y calidad de la imagen.
Luego, la excelente composición que armaste, con el tallo saliendo justo por el vertice derecho inferior, y las flores cayendo graciosamente hacia el centro de la imagen y ocupando todo el centro de atención.
Y la profundidad de campo inmejorable.
Enhorabuena y gracias por compartir la foto con nosotros.
Un gran saludo,
JM

Hola José,
Fine capture of the Blue Hound's Tongue flowers. It is called 'hundstunga' in Swedish, the name referring to the shape of the leaves.
Sharp and well-composed capture with pleasing BG.
A mi, me gusta: muy linda!
TFS, saludos.

Hello JOse,
Very beautiful macro of these lovely flowers. I love the blue colours and the little dark "miniflower" in the centre of the flower. Excellent depth of focus and great sharpness. Very fine background too.
Many thanks, Ulla

José, te ha quedado excelente. Lo que más me gusta las ondulaciones de los pétalos de las dos flores principales que has sabido plasmar bien. La tengo tb en mi galería y es una flor preciosa.
Saludos y buen fin de semana.

Hola Jose.

Dear José,
admirable details all over the blossoms due to perfectly placed depth of field, pleasantly soft colours, graceful composition. Beautiful flowering plant with soft leaves and furry stems, doing well on dry locations. Just a few days ago I enjoyed the look of a closely related deeply dark species next to my place. Never found anything troublesome about them. They seem to live in harmony with native grasses, animals, and people.
Thank you! With best regards,
Peter

These are the kind of flower compositions from your camera that I have come to love and admire, Jose.
A superb picture of these lovely flowers, queerly named Blue Hound's Tongue!
Thanks for sharing this beauty, my friend.

My dear Jose,
This is a DANGEROUS plant; we have this scourge in parts of Alberta.
Have read your notes on it too. VERY CORRECT in every sense.
You have captured this image as BEAUTIFULLY as it is in real life; we stay away from it,though.
My in-laws are farmers and they HATE this plant with a passion.
Friendly greetings,
Mario.
