PotW 23.09.08

Postby Glen on Tue Sep 23, 2008 10:34 am

PotW this week is being chosen by Chris (sirhc55)


There were some very good pics to choose from this week especially in the animal category. Part of my reasoning in choosing the POTW is to look at not only the composition but a personal factor - would I liked to have taken the shot. The pic I have chosen is a wonderful perspective shot with lots of OOF and a single flower in just the right place.

Norbs, you are a worthy winner of this weeks POTW.
