Very beautiful image here Sandi. Interesting background and lighting. The color in the flowers match the eye in your avatar as well as your signature........HDR? Not familiar with that acronym.

Gary, HDR means High Dynamic Range. Desertraptor, this one has had some tone mapping, High Dynamic compression, pictocolor correction, neat image, and a touch of USM.
Thanks for taking the time to comment~ much appreciated!

Good job!

Simply lovely! I've got to try HDR. It seems to be all the rage at the moment.

Lovely picture - I think they might be Lysianthus, if I'm spelling it right.
