I guess I see more of a curve than a diagonal but I like it anyway. ~dtallakson

Thanks, gang. Appreciate your comments.

Lovely colors amm! It says curvy/vertical to me more than curvy/diagonal but beautiful none-the-less! :-) CJ

Pretty color Aam, but my eye wishes for a little more sharpness too. Yeah, it must be the cheap equipment. You should throw all that stuff out- in my garbage can ;-)

I think the softness comes from the cheap camera & lenses Aamm uses:-)

Nice composition Aam.
But find the picture to be bit soft.

Two good points, Lydia. First, sorry to both of you guys for the mix up, Lydia and Tom ("guys" for me = both females and males, and it's been confirmed by the good people here). Second, I'll try to re-shoot it. Thanks ma lady Lydia :)

That's exactly the song that came to my mind right off, Penny! :) It was the woman's name, Truly Scrumptious.

Perhaps you should have apologized to ME, aam! *grin*

I agree about the diagonal issue. Perhaps if you cropped for just the top part with the grass? I dunno. Pretty colors together, regardless. ~Lydia

Opps, I called Tom Lydia. Sorry about that, Tom. I could swear I saw Lydia's name there. Maybe I need a vacation :)

You guys are making me want some chocolate now :) Thanks Doug, glad it's on topic.

ha ha ha. so we found tv's weakpoint(?)
Does anyone remember the song in the musical "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang" called "Truly Scrumptious"? I think there was an ad for the show which promoted it a "fantasmagorical" experience. See if that word is in your dictionary!!

I always say if a manly guy is going to post a girly shot it better be a good one. This one is mission accomplished. The word scrumptious reminds me of an old Nestle Crunch bar commercial... "Chocolate is scrumptious when it crunches..." -COAmature
aam1234 12-Sep-2008 16:14
He he, had to look that word up in the dictionary. Thanks for adding a new word to my vocabulary and nice comment, Lydia. Btw, it's spelled "Scrumptious" :)
Guest 12-Sep-2008 15:26
Hmmm. Can't add much to the foregoing but will try to find a new word to use. "Scrumptuous" comes to mind. -tv

Cheers, Rod.
I had the same concern, Penny. Guess we have to wait for the boss on this one :) Thanks for your comment, none the less.

This is really a nice curve but not really a diagonal - well, maybe it is.
Great color!! Penny Street

I thought one of the girls took this, couldn't you at least find a cactus to shoot:-) Anyhow mate the colour of the flowers show up really well. Well done.
