Carolina Jessamine Single

This is a single flower of the Jessamine not Jasmine as I once thought it was-{thanks Doug}
taken from the vine shot
to single them out isn't easy because the group together like young lovers-

Three thumbs up! (I've mutated recently.) I like the way the beam across the top speaks of the blossom being shaded in a semi-hideaway by its fellow flora and the way it rests on the leaves in an alert way speaks of being calm and reassured. (I do not pick flowers as a rule-it feels like mutilation- but this one tempts my hand as it belongs in a woman's hair. )

thank you kindly-I pick flowers all the time don't have a problem really- I think that's what they are there for- pretty faces and all!

Charlotte,

I too like this shot. It's refreshing to have more folks realize that we do not need to fully reveal everything. Having said that, I'd return when the sun lit at least half the face of the flower. It's the same type of idea that makes a half-hidden human face, peeping from behind a wall, or from a darkened hood, becomes so intriguing. What one want's to do s take what might be a fun snap that's really nice to something that's inescapable.

I'd like more. This s a good idea to follow with further work. Good job.
