LANKY LADIES

"Lanky Ladies" (8-13-17 006v2) is a very new pic I just finished fussing at a crop for today. That's just about all I did to it. I even tried making it a more usual shape but I like how this tall one echoes the flowers and the palm trunk. I think these are canna lilies. I rarely see them in these colors, and the leaves are usually darker and striped in reds and oranges. Yep, they're cannas. I just uploaded this pic to Google images and got that confirmed. BTW, it was a lightly hazy morning when I snapped this pic and I was hopeful that would make for a clear pic. So although I have some small issues with it, I'm delighted with the clarity of this photo. Usually at this time of morning the bright sun (even when a bit hazed over) makes for poor shots that I then use as "templates" for artsy or abstract pix. Of course, given my propensity for fussing endlessly at fave pix, this one may wind up in weird versions, as well. :-)
