Thank you so much for including my photograp...Hank,<br />Thank you so much for including my photograph in your post and for your kind words.<br /><br />I LOVE your magnolia photo. I wanted to jump in and explore it. Looking at it reminded me also of an exercise I do in my Through and From the Lens Telecourses, where I have participants put themselves, proportionately-sized, into a photo and explore, in writing, the feelings of all the surfaces and spaces.<br /><br />Then in looking at the two flowers here, my tulips, your magnolia, I was struck by a few contrasts (per one of the themes you mention in your post) - the contrast between the openness of the magnolia and the closed, protected feeling projected by the tulips.<br /><br />I then considered the <b>contrast</b> in the sizes of the enlargements, so I did a larger version - see <a href="http://www.eteletours.com/EZINE/tulip-2-800pix.jpg" rel="nofollow">Purple Tulip</a> to see the almost, same-size contrast.<br /><br />I'll refrain from further commenting, leaving that contrast a blank slate for your visitors.<br /><br />Thanks again. <br /><br />Inspirationally,<br />SheilaSheila Finkelsteinhttp://www.sheilafinkelstein.comnoreply@blogger.com
