Hi Silke,

It's wonderful to see you posting again - I forgive you and I'm sure everyone else will as well. I love daisies and this one is lovely. Beautiful colors that look marvelous against the green. Nice background with the blurred daisies.

Oh boy...I can tell you are using a Nikon...this reminds me much of my settings and my eye almost as well...if not perhaps better done in it's simplicity. I really like this and now suddenly realize how much we are missing when you do not post! Shout it out on the mountains! You are here...I shall go tell my "people"..;-)

Hi Silke,
As simple as beautiful!
I like a lot this vertical composition, with the daisy coming into the framing in that smooth curve.
Excellent DOF that makes the background so enjoying to look at.
The PP applied produced great results!
My compliments and thanks for share it.
Warm regards,
JM

Hi Silke,
This picture, somehow, does not look like your style.
But, I like it. And, I like it very much.
Thanks a lot for sharing.

After long absence you have shared a very nice picture. Its deep green tones are simply amazing. I like wonderful composition of the shot and nice slope of the flower, superb reproduction of all its beauty and pleasant bokeh. My compliments and TFS. Well done.

I completely forgive you even though you don't really need to be forgiven... it's not your fault you can't post really frequently!
I'm very glad you're back anyhow :)
A classic "Silke" shot!
Simple yet powerful and effective.
Superb composition and POV.
Excellent sharpness and great clarity.
Hope to see some more from you soon!

Hi Silke,
first, i must point out a grave error in this posting...Bournemouth is in Dorset, not Devon ... I will forgive you though ;o)
Anyway, nice to see you back again, this time with a 'simple English Daisy'. Excellent low POV, sharp and well exposed too.

Beautiful photo - something of hope felt in that photo. Lovely.

Of course we forgive you. We all have lives outside of TN and sometimes we have to spend more time living them. :)
BUT we're happy to have you back.

Hello Silke,
Only three months to go before we begin to see these! In Swedish they are called Tusensköna, beauties seen in their thousands.
I like your POV very much: not often we see daisies from the side and you have made a fine well composed macro from this perspective where it stands out well against the OOF grassy BG.
Thanks for sharing this beauty,
Ivan

Hi Silke,

A beautiful daisy that make me think spring is not to far. The flower is getting a good luminosity that brings out the colors. The point of view allows us to see the details and colors of the flower. have a nice day.

Hi Silke,
Good to see you back and thank you for this beautiful daisy.
Joey put it so eloquintly" Simple yet powerful and effective".
Very nicely composed with the blurred BG flowers in the "right"
spot. What a day brightener on this cloudy winter day.

So artistically shown Silke. Just a tiny daisy, but still so beautiful. I like your POV - you were certainly down low to take this shot

Hello Silke,
I like the point of view, that together with use of DOF makes the subject stand well out!
Sharp fine details and a pleasant diagonal composition...
