Don, I love the soft lavendars and greens in this image and the field of sage! Not sure about the strong white light in the background. It’s distracting, although I can see how it’s backlighting the flower stem on the left. Is that the sun rising or an artificial light source? Whatever, it pulls my eye away from the flowers. PS I need to learn more about sage. Would love to have these plants in my yard, but not sure they would like this climate!
I love the soft sage and backlit blooms, but the bright spot grabs my eye a bit too much-I find myself squinting to get the sun out of my eye. Nice use of selective focus and shallow depth of field.
