Nurture Photography Challenge... Purple/Halloween



Flowers
Got to love my wide-angle lens... 
Taken in Stratford upon Avon cemetery.

A wide-angle is great for not only including a lot in a scene, but also distortion.  What you have to do though is get much closer than you think is right to the subject in the foreground - I was almost on top of these flowers.

    That's beautifully done. I love the look of that church, and it works well with the flowers in the foreground...

    That it truly a gorgeous shot of the church, cemetery and flowers. Thanks for sharing it. I can almost visualize this as the cover of a scary book of stories!

    So, "Objects in the photo are closer than they appear?" :-)

    Absolutely wonderful photo! I think purple does NOT get its props as an Autumn and Halloween color, so I'm happy to see it in its glory in your gorgeous photo!

I get many more views on my posts than comments, so please if you drop by, stop and say hello. Otherwise I'll start getting paranoid and neurotic, and worry that nobody likes me... sniff sniff...
