Bob,
 
As we say in French, you are not a clumsy armless person when handling a camera 
and light!
 
And the square format does magnify the arrangement. 
 
Just kove it to bits.
 
The flower shows too a talent for the 'Mise en scene'!

Yesterday I went to Purisima Creek Open Space Preserve here in San Mateo 
County. I'd never been before and was absolutely blown away. It was an overcast 
day so no sun peeking through with hot spots. It is literally a redwood forest: 
not a grove, but a huge forest.
The creek was flowing from recent wet weather. It was very difficult to see 
anything photographically as there was just SOOO much. I only made it 1 mile 
into a 4 mile (one way) hike. It took me about 4 hours to get that far as I was 
constantly shooting, climbing and walking 50 feet to repeat.
I'll have to go back; what a treasure!

Best,
