First Day of Spring: Special Spring Photo Contest

123.jpg

This is my entry into the First day of spring: special Spring Photo Contest run by @czechglobalhosts.

I love Spring! This photo was taken at the Toowoomba Carnival of Flowers, it's a spring event held every year, this year will be it's 69th year. The whole town gets together and plants out all their gardens, parks and public spaces putting on a huge colour display. This shot was taken in one of the poppy gardens... I love poppy's, their form and shape is so beautiful and they're the perfect spring flowering bulb. For this shot, I decided to get down in the garden, to get a shot of all their beauty from underneath.

Oh, beautiful! That may be my favourite entry in the contest so far. :)

Oh wow... really! : ) Thank you... there are some really nice photos in there!!!
I have a few nice ones I took that day... I was struggling to decide on which one is the better one... I'm still not sure if this was the right one : )

In your opinion, light like that coming through a photo is okay?

It's not always okay, and it often looks bad, but for whatever reason the lens flare on this is kind of neat rather than distracting.

Okay, thanks... good to know. I wasn't sure... I liked it but didn't know if it was a no, no. : )
A few years back I entered a photo comp run by our state newspaper... and did quite well, I can't exactly remember now. Although it was a photo that had a lot of lens flare but again I like it. This was the photo... again looking at it now, I'm still not so sure.

I'm not sure either, I generally don't like that kind of flare, but it's kind of neat how it's almost like you used it as a compositional tool to frame the creek.

This was one of those freak shots... we were driving, I took this from a moving car... and it just so happened that this is what I got!

It's one of those things that if you tried to achieve this you never would... maybe that's why I liked it. : )

Wow, that's crazy!

This is a super great picture. The angles, colors and light are all so well balanced and placed!

Oh wow, thank you!! : )
That's so kind of you to say... I'm a little speechless. I almost didn't post this one, I'm so glad I did now! : )

Yeah and it caught my attention and I just submitted a picture too.

That means a lot! I'm going to go and check yours out now too!! : )
