Deserts Around Big Bend_4

This shot was taken in a courtyard at a resort in Lajitas Texas in the summer of '08. As usual I don't know the variety but the flowers on this plant hung down from an overhead trellis and were absolutely beautiful.

I like the composition. I think that you could even increase the red in the flowers.

Trumpet vine or Trumpet creeper (Campsis radicans), also known as "Cow itch vine" is a very aggressive and invasive plant. I agree you could push the saturation a little more.

I like the softness of the background and the color combination a lot. I do wish that you had hit the flowers with just a little flash to bring out the details in the flowers and help them separate better from the background. Nice work

Nice shot Larry!

To me this photo has a lot of depth and subtle richness.

Well done!
