Description
This rhododendron lives two doors down from me, on the corner of a neighbor's lot. I was standing up in their raised flower bed, taking pictures of their plants when they got home one afternoon. (I don't actually know these people to talk to, mind you!) They just waved and smiled and went in the house. I'm thinking the people in my neighborhood are just a LITTLE bit too used to me wandering around being eccentric!
Due to the circumstances under which this image was taken, I'm dedicating it to collinbabcock, in honor of his vision.

You just keep getting better and better and most proficient in your rhododendron captures! Stellar POV, lighting, black and purplish colors and detail in this compo, my dear! Incidentally, if I'm ever caught taking pictures of flowers on my neighbor's property, they make a call to the Sheriff's Department and I land up in custody.
Your flower photography is wonderful. The lighting is spot on.
