I choose this title for two reasons, a Change to come soon in Seasons, and for the name of the foundation my daughters school is performing for today, they are having a Valentines Orchestra concert and the proceeds all go to the Playing for change foundation to help build, staff and improve new and existing music schools in Africa and all around the world. A happy Sunday to everyone.

Such a pretty poppy and capture, I love the detail especially on the stems with the fine and delicate hairs. So many stages of life in this photo
wonderful vibrant capture...hope your daughters school raise lots for such a worthy cause...'if music be the food of love, play on'
Poppys, Poppys, Poppys,! great image good luck on the project sounds like a very good idea! I think music and art are the two most universal laguages we have in this world and we should use them to bring the whole world together in peace!

A nice view of the poppy I have never see one from the underside. nice capture.Not bad singing on the video.
simply beautiful, lynell, the way you've captured the growth stages in the lifecycle... and in such a vibrant way too! excellent eye for metaphor in addition to visual composition! and as for the concert... rock on, erin!! xox
Nicely done Lynell! Best to Erin. Musical genes in my family bypassed me but I am a big advocate of music education.
lovely capture with great details!
Wow! Fantastic work. Every detail.
Very nice capture and display!

Excellent image and wonderful dedication! Music and the rest of the arts need our support!
What a truly wonderful capture and theme here Lynell, great work
Wonderful capture Lynell and what a great program for the concert to fund! Bravo to both!
super looking
Beautiful shot!!!
A wonderfully cheerful pic! thankyou!
Great shot Lynell, rich and vibrant colours and the water droplets are exquisite.
Very pretty shot! What an honor for your daughter.
Surrounded by the grays and brown tones of winter I really appreciate the gorgeous colors, awesome capture!!!
A beautiful capture of this vibrant flower.
It's a different take, for a change, to show the other side of a flower and why not ? very rich in colour, those dew drops add another dimension. Cheers BB
That is a very nice show of how the poppy goes through it's stages. Everything is wonderfully in focus and the droplets have even gathered some pollen!
Glad I popped in to view the poppies in this stellar macro, Lynell. Sharp clarity and vivid colors on display here.
I love the display of different stages of the poppy. Exciting news about the project at the school as well.
really beautiful capture lynell..
I'd heard of Playing for Change, but never looked into it. A wonderful concept, and nice that your daughters' school dedicates their proceeds to the foundation. Nice bold macro (full view a must!) with a nice capture of the twisty stems and all their bristles & orneriness. And the flower really bursts into the center of it all: It's big & bold, and the water on the flower brings out its texture. Bright cheery piece for the foundation you're honoring, and for the winter too. Hope you're doing well this February!
so much beautiful
beautiful ... I really like the back view of this poppy
Sorry I am so far down the list but when you're as popular as you Lynell.......I love poppies reminds me of the Wizard of Oz - one of my fave top 10 movies of all time . . ..unique and beautiful - sound familiar??? . . .Butch
