Pink Beauty - Gold Winner

Pink Beauty - Gold Winner

This was the Gold Winner in the Nature's Beauty Contest, October 2004 : )

Silver Cup rose mallows, beautiful shimmering petals. grown by me in our front patio area last summer. I LOVE the pink stamen in the centres of these, it matches the petals perfectly.

thanks to Brian, have re entered the photo back in the October 2004 Nature's Beauty "regular" contest, as well as the others that were missing from various contests.

this is another of the photos that are missing from the October 2004 contests. So far have found 5 photos of mine missing from these contest pages. 2 from the Oct 2004 Enhanced Contest "Circles", and 3 from the Oct 2004 "Regular" contest, Natures Beauty. What happened to the photos?

I can't believe I haven't commented on this. The color is gorgeous, and the petals look like a lavender draped cloth. Beautiful!

Congratulations Alandra on winning Gold. This is a beautiful flower and the colour is so vivid and sharp, looks lovely against the green background.

A striking shot Alandra. The rich pinkness contrasts sharply with the darker green foilage. Nice and sharp and nothing to distract from the flower itself!

I just HAD to have a look at this after reading your email about it. And yes, it is a WOW! Really a beautiful shot. You do this sort of thing very well. And it is not all the camera either.
