I was editing some photos the other day and it made me wonder just which view I preferred of some photos. . . Let me show you some examples. Some of them I much prefer "before they were reduced" although they don't show the whole flower. Thus, the close up is more eye catching. A few look better to me with some distance. What do you think?

The closeups looks like completely different shots comparing with the original. They're all wonderful but I do like the closeup more on a few of them.
I like both views. It is interesting to see the detail on the close ups.I especially like the one that has sunshine hitting the right side and the one with the single Bee. Mama Bear
I love cropping my flower shots... you really end up with some compelling images oftentimes. Occasionally I will prefer the "bigger picture," but not as often.
Each are beautiful, in their own way. Myself, I like the detail, but the others are great too. What kind of camera do you use?...and thanks for stoppin' by my blog!
Paulie, I always like the close-ups--your city flowers and my wildflowers. But the longer shots give a perspective that the close-ups don't always have. Sometimes it's a matter of the composition. I like to shoot--or crop--my flower photos to get an interesting composition or an interesting angle, whether close or far.
I'm getting my wildflowers organized, BTW, so that they can serve as an identification tool for hiking.
JennyMcB gave me this award and I thank her for the consideration. Sharon gave me this award and it means a lot to me.
Dragonstar surprised me with this one today!
Lilli gave me this and a few days later Kathy did too. I also received it from Bears In Exile, Sharon, Kerri and Mrs. Nesbitt. I guess I have a lot to live up to as the recipient of this award.
pernille's ting og tanggave me this award this week and I will treasure it and try to always have a good reason to blog.
I LOVE MYSTERIES! But most of all I love mysteries with wonderful descriptions of snow in them. One such author that accomplishes this beautiful writing feature is Diana Mott Davidson and I look forward to her next mystery novel before it ever comes out. Since I was a very young child, I have enjoyed this genre.
Today, it is still my favorite. Now, I have found that I like the descriptions of snow that this author uses and I have written quotes from her books down to remind me.
When I locate my list of snow phrases, I will add them here so I have a permanant location to re-read them often. In the meantime, something kept me too busy from reading her latest novel called Dark Tort and I want to get that asap! All the books are about a caterer who has a son, is divorced and re-married to a cop AND she always solves a mystery connected to her catering and there is always snow in Denver. I wish I could write like her!
Found a few of them!
"Trees high and low were hung with glittering ribbons of snow."
"Sunbeams slanting through the pines and aspen branches winked off errant flakes."
"Out here in the boondocks, the snow is seductively pretty."
"Through the thickening swirl of snowflakes . . . "
"As if on cue, the snow began to flutter down again . . . "
There are more -- I just have to re-locate them. . . hmmmm. maybe a new re-read of each title would be in order!
My name is Paulie and I have several blogs. I started with "PostcardsfromPaulie" which is my main blog. I have gradually added others. "Turtle Place" is for a new project downtown that celebrates our heritage and one day will be a gathering place like it was many years ago.Vancouver's history. I intend to keep a photo graphic journal of a special house at From My View - the Kiggins House.
Living in Vancouver, WA, we have many historical homes and sites and our community is aware of the importance of our heritage. This home was built by the first Mayor of Vancouver and is on the National Historical Register. This year, it was moved from its original site and is being restored to be used as the personal home of the Bruce and Judy Woods family.

It depends on the flower. Some look better close up..while others don't look as good in their close up shots. They are great photos.
Those closeups are beautiful. This really makes me want to learn how to photoshop.
All the photographs are great and the flowers are beautiful.
