Yellow Ruffles - Katrina Relief Auction Offering

First time I could capture the strong light through the yellow ruffles of this flower and not have it too fuzzy. Been taking hundreds of photos of this type of plant for 9 months now, and finally, some success. I looked for the brightest, most cheerful version to share on flickr today, for the news and situation in our US Gulf states is so devastating and depressing.

This photo and any other photos I have in my photostream are offered in a CD suitable for use as a screensaver to the highest bidder in the Katrina Relief Auction on flickr.com. To leave a comment at flickr or to donate artwork for the auction, or place a bid that will be given directly to the American Red Cross, you must look at the links provided. Members of flickr.com are allowed to comment and bid, but if you are not a member, it is easy and instant to join.

For details, look at the topic within that thread. It is my hope that someone will appreciate a simple CD filled with images of light and beauty to color a world often overshadowed in dark times.

This is from G.J. Charlet III's stream on flickr. It says to me the status of the USA following Hurrican Katrina and also the tattered remains, if any, of world respect...
