Thanks Shu:-) No I'm not hard at all except on the internet, I have to do everything Mereana tells me to do. She even has me trained to do things before she has asked:-) Don't tell anyone, our secret Shu.

Why feel guilty when you step outside the box, Rod. You've got to get rid of that nasty habit! I continue to marvel at the versatility of your work. Just when I think you are as hard as nails, you come along with this colorful, flowing piece of art. A lot of noise in it, but you can just add it to it's beauty in this case. shu

Thanks Shu & Brent:-) I still haven't got out with the tripod, I'm feeling very guilty.

More like a flower explosion Rod. -Doug

Nice transformation from garden to stage. Almost looks like Degas in that sense. Hardly thought it was you - nice to see something really new. -tv

Thanks Penny:-) It's a bit overdone on my monitor but after seeing this version the original seems a bit insipid.

I like this as much as the other one. Penny Street

Thanks Kiki, Carole, Penny & YB:-) I've tarted it up for your edification but it might be too much now a. You know me I'm so subtle:-)

Its a hell of a thing Rod, when us old guys can't keep our hands still long enough to take a shot. :)

I can see the ballet dancers too.

This shot is nearly there, it just needs that little bit of magic to make it special.

Stravinsky's Firebird, perhaps? Penny Street

Tart this up a bit more Rod, and you'll really have something! :-D CJ

lol to Penny's comment. The flower kind of looks like an orange jumping spider. Of sorts. Kind of. Good exposure anyway. One more Q about the 40D: Does the anti-dust-shake work? Not that I see any here - but I certainly do in my own shots (20D)
