I’m sure there would be a dozen other photos competing (and successfully so) for this position. But this one comes so close, I think it can take the stand for today.

I try to make it a point every year to take photos of Mum’s flower bed. This session was in September, and I remember being surprised at the beauty that was still there in fall. I also remember working so hard for this one frame, trying to get the composition perfect. I rarely put that much effort into photos, so to have it turn out so wonderfully was incredibly rewarding.
