    These are all interesting. My personal preference is for the fifth - I like the clarity of the light on those frilled edges.

    I LOVE #2 and #9 .... maybe #9 the best but I can't decide :)

    I prefer the 5th from the top because of its clarity. Just looked up and saw Dragonstar's comment; apparently we agree!

    I think I'd say the fourth. Definitely the clarity on the frilly edges (like the others said), but with that little touch of the ethereal still involved.

    I like all of them, but if you want a choice, mine would be number five. Beautiful shots!

    Oh, we get to vote? Then #1, because it looks more like a pencil drawing than a photo.

    Thanks Dragonstar!!! The fifth one is TheChief's favorite too!!!

    Thanks Kerri!!! I wasn't sure about #9...I'm really glad you like it!!! I liked the light and how it reflects off the petals!!!

    You agree with TheChief too Kate!!!

    I'm really enjoying finding out what everybody likes! I like the little bit of grain too Adele!!!

    Thanks Brian!!! So far #5 is in the lead!!!

    I'm not surprised you'd pick a different one Hiker!!! This is one of my favorites too!!! I had fun with the grain!

    This is superb. And I love #1.

    Were these the daffodils we saw peeking out of the snow on Thursday? I'm amazed at how they look through your eyes.

    I really like how varied the responses have been Island Wonder!!! Thanks for visiting!

    Wow!!! Thanks Margaret!!! (I'm blushing...)

    Thanks Petrea!!! No...the daffodils we saw didn't come out very well...I took these of the daffodil bouquet I had in the dining room. With my macro lens...which I absolutely love and recommend!!!
