A beautiful and eye catching composition here. Wonderful and subtle tumbling of colours. The flowers here are shimmering spill of whites and sublte shapes, opening into deep orange and brown caverns. They recede like beckonig little caves or entrances of a mysterious nature. Well done.
Margaret Saheed replied:
Thanks Helen. I must thank the ginger for producing all those shapes and colors! They grow in the Trail of the Elephants.
