    I love the muted colours and the feeling this is printed on linen

    A beautiful image. Lovely shades of green and the detail of the flower is superb.

    I like the soft green leaves that cover most of the frame, with the bud and bloom as nice off-center relief. did you put a subtle linen texture on? I think I can almost see a bit of a weave.

    Our garden has given us unimaginable solace over the last few years when we really needed it.
    That is a lovely image.

    What a gorgeous image Sherri. Next to the flower that looks like sage leaves. Oh I love sage — to look at, to touch, to smell and to cook with 😉
    I think Ruskin’s point is a fine one.

    He is wrong about their intention but right about their effect. I’m also unsure of what ‘ordinary humanity’ is 🙂 Nice image

    Yes, re. the role of flowers. I miss them in the winter. You have a gift for the right quote.
