Amazingly effective for a nearly monochrome shot. Fascinating to me how the constraints of the banner format can focus one's attention and help one see things differently. Hydrangea, I'm guessing...not that it matters.

Been awhile since I've visited the banner site. Lots of great banners that I've missed!
Annabelle's petals are like the snowflakes coming down right now in the plains. Smiling

I love all Hydrangea's, but alas, I cannot grow them here without putting them into a pot and keeping them out of the sun. No, I cannot restrict so beautiful a plant, shrub, or tree. Those love the shade and they love water. Oh, well, I did have beautiful Nikko Blue ones when we lived in Tennessee and they were over my head.

The Mopheads are very fetching! Lovely banner Rachael! Lovey dubby
