Jan 23 - Reminders of Flowers

A few outlines of last summer's flowers linger in the garden as the new Spring bulbs begin their show.

I wish I was further north tonight, just heard on the radio that the Aurora Borealis might be visible in northern England.
I’d be hanging fire with the PAD if there was even a glimmer of hope seeing them here :0(

Beautiful! Love the sharp skeletonised remainder of the flower and the soft backgground!

Love the DOF , super picture....

Very nicely done Brian. Far better than staying up and out to see a chance of the northern lights.

That is a strangely beautiful picture, very well done.

Very nice ghostliness.
I'm away out to fiddle with me light balance, I'm far enough north but not east enough!

Great bit of work. V
Have a look athttp://www.pbase.com/tinkerb/image/141068447 for proof that the Aurora was on show.

Or even the ghost of a flower to match your ghost of a chance at some Northern Lights! I'm not northern enough either - still, it's nowt you can't do with some street-lighting, low-cloud and a fiddle with the white-balance :o)

very interesting effect with the out-of-focus 'halo' behind the main group
