    I like the composition of the second image, nicely captured.

    Marie, I especially like the first image. The stars from the water droplets are spectacular. What is the name of the plant and where is it found?

    Chuck,

    You will laugh. These are my spent blooms from my hanging geranium - after the petals are gone.

    Slightly lean towards the second. The light from behind works beautifully.

    Not so sure it looks like our Xmas. By Xmas my outside shots are monochrome.

    The backlight in #1 is very nice though I prefer #2 best...spent geraniums? -- and you found something good to show for that? Good for you girl !!! You are very creative...

    John, thank you.

    Trevor, you are right. By the time the holidays come around, things are rather gray.

    Izzie and Grahame, I almost did not post these as I thought they are ugly. They are cropped rather severely.

    David and Binnur, thank you.
