CHANGING OF THE COLOR GUARD

"Changing of the Color Guard" (8-16-09 5614v2b) was just morphed from a very old pic of mine, one I've always liked but found problematic compositionally. I'm still not certain, even with some judicious cropping, about this shape. As I mentioned in a recent post about another pic, it seems OK, until it doesn't! :-) But I really like the blurred outlining and the color combo. As is obvious over the years of pic posts here, I'm a sucker for brights on black. Not to mention my fondness for these blooms which, unfortunately, we have had very few of around our grounds in years subsequent to the year in which this was taken (2009). BTW, this pic is one of those that looks better in a larger version, so just click on the image if you want to see more of the details.
