Lovely shot! VOTE Sandy&Lloyd
Greg Harp16-Oct-2006 02:52
Outstanding macro. GMV
JW14-Oct-2006 08:22
You broke the rules but it's still a 'punchy' picture!
Al Chesworth14-Oct-2006 01:13
What's wrong with that, it's beautifull.
Guest 14-Oct-2006 00:05
It's centered yes,but it's lovely!
Sue Robertson13-Oct-2006 10:43
Funny but this works really well centered. Draws us right in.
shatterbug13-Oct-2006 05:06
This still works really well, because of the converging lines and brightly colored center :-) V.
Michael Shpuntov13-Oct-2006 02:46
I've got many flowers macro like this. Sometimes central composition, while breaking the rule creates harmony of symmetry. Great shot
Herb 13-Oct-2006 02:18
Flower macros can be centered or even slightly to the right.
Nice macro
Char13-Oct-2006 02:09
Very pretty Sheila. GMV
Guest 13-Oct-2006 01:47
dead smack centre
Susan Leigh13-Oct-2006 01:32
hehe Col!!
I have to agree with most.. superb macro!
Wei O'Connell13-Oct-2006 00:15
Beautiful! We don't care about the rules here. vote
Barbara Heide12-Oct-2006 22:48
what have you done again, Sheila! this is just too perfect!
Buz Kiefer12-Oct-2006 22:35
Toss out the rules if you get results like this. Vote.
Bill Warren12-Oct-2006 22:24
Quite centered and beautiful color dynamics.
Guest 12-Oct-2006 22:22
Stunning shot Sheila !
(only cos it's just a tad off dead centre :-))
Dave Wixx12-Oct-2006 22:07
And a poor rule it is. Just think if we all conformed, we may as well stop what we're doing!!!
Chris12-Oct-2006 22:03
There can't be anything wrong here surely? Chris
Guest 12-Oct-2006 21:51
Wonderful colors. Rich bright. I love it.
Tom Munson12-Oct-2006 21:06
Nice shot Sheila. If this breaks the rules they need to be brokaen.. Vote
Olaf Herrig12-Oct-2006 21:01
A very nice macro work! I like the wonderful colors.
Johnny JAG12-Oct-2006 20:58
Lovely colour and detail.
Jessica McCollum12-Oct-2006 20:48
Definately worth it though! Beautiful image!
Ray :)12-Oct-2006 20:15

Bill Ewart Jr12-Oct-2006 19:53
If this was off to the side it would be acceptable?
John Beck12-Oct-2006 19:41
The colors help overlook such a silly rule. Nice macro. (Or should that be close-up)?
Gary Winters12-Oct-2006 19:39
OH, you're in trouble now! Great shot.
Guest 12-Oct-2006 19:32
That shows the clarity and composition are independant!
Jen Bixler12-Oct-2006 19:16
who cares! It is pretty!
Guest 12-Oct-2006 19:02
This is done so often that I think the rule book must have made flowers an exception!
James Ross12-Oct-2006 18:30
Rules broken very nicely. :-)
Thierry Lucas12-Oct-2006 18:03
Excellent details and very nice colors.

Guest 12-Oct-2006 17:50
Wow, those colors are something!
JSWaters12-Oct-2006 16:32
It's so pretty - who would care that you broke the rule?
Jenene
wernere0112-Oct-2006 16:26

Guest 12-Oct-2006 16:17

Bryan Murahashi12-Oct-2006 15:11
Superb color and detail in this mistake shot. V
beverley harrison12-Oct-2006 15:08
i think most of us will have broken this one today, but yours is still gorgeous!!
Nicki Thurgar12-Oct-2006 14:58
I broke that one too :o) Beautiful shot!
AL12-Oct-2006 14:48
I tried to scroll to the right to correct your composition but it disallowed me :-( LOL... It's a gorgeous break! Love your full centered view. And yes, rules are meant to be broken :-))) Voted.
Guest 12-Oct-2006 14:16
we'll let you slide this time...only because it's a wonderful shot
Dan Chusid12-Oct-2006 14:05
You broke the cardinal rule...
...never tell!
: )
Guenter Eh12-Oct-2006 12:43
What a "lively" middle position compo Sheila!
gary becker12-Oct-2006 12:27
Very powerful.
royalld12-Oct-2006 11:17
Is there a broken rule here? If so the crime is lost somewhere in the beauty of it all.
Tomasz Dziubinski - Photography12-Oct-2006 11:11
Beautiful :)
Guest 12-Oct-2006 10:44
I do this all the time - but it makes a great shot!!!
Jannik Lindquist12-Oct-2006 10:31
Wonderful shot :-) I find it hard to imagine an off-centered version that would work as well as this.
Zak12-Oct-2006 10:19
nice!!
Faye White12-Oct-2006 10:16
perfection!
laine8212-Oct-2006 10:07

Jola Dziubinska12-Oct-2006 09:01
