I hope you like my entry for this Motivational Poster.
NATURE'S BEAUTY Is not just what we See on the Outside
But what we Feel on the Inside
The orchid was a Mother Days gift to me from my husband Peter. I looked at it and realized I needed to get my camera out again after a 6 months off, due to my health issues.
I looked at this pink orchid photo and thought, I wonder if there is a challenge that would suit this photo. I saw the 'Motivational Poster' challenge, and came up with this. I hope you like it.....
I now feel reborn, and so excited, and love being back behind the camera. I will still not be able to get out and about to take photos, but hopefully take some more here at home, and to share them with you here when I can.
My love of photography has never waved.
You all still mean so much to me, and I thank you for your loyal support, friendship, and love to me, since I have been away from you all here at DPC.
love always shez
POST CHALLENGE; THANK YOU all so much for your votes and comments. I was a little saddened with a couple of comments, but very pleased with all the other ones that you all left me.....
I also am so pleased to be back taking photos again as I really missed it so much these past 6 months.
When Peter gave me this orchid for Mothers Day and the challenge was just announced I decided to get my camera out and take this and other photos.
The love for photography is still burning inside of me. THANKS everyone.....love shez

Shez, what a beautiful orchid photo and poster. I was so happy to see this, and know you have camera in hand once again! Congratulations and please keep those wonderful images coming!
What a gorgeous poster, Shez! I can definitely see this in a store. The picture is beautiful (and thanks, Peter, it was a lovely gift!) and I really like the way you composed the poster and matched that vibrant pink for the lettering. SO good to have you back in the challenges and side challenges!
It's wonderful to see you entering challenges again; this must have been one of the best Mother's Day presents ever - the inspiration to pick up your camera after such a long hiatus. Peter, we at DPC owe you one mate!
Congrats on a good finish Shez, and it's wonderful to see that you are moving around enough to enjoy your camera again. I have noticed that you have been posing in the forum threads too. It's a thrill to see that you are back in action at DPC.
Love the vivid colors and your choice of BG for this shot. Oh, and Happy Mums Day a little late : )
HEY SHEZ .. !!!
yes its wonderful to see you back where you belong .. in DPC .. !!!
its a beautiful image and such an apt saying ..
congrats on something stunning .. :)
I love everything about this shot.
1) The beautiful Orchid and it's colour.
2)The title you have given it.
3)The caption,how true is that:-)
For me it is just full of emotion.
Flowers can say so much!!
It feels a bit too "hard" for a flower photo: a large area of sharp text, reminding of a newspaper advert for a beauty product, and maybe too wide a depth of field.
A great capture of the flower. The image is shapr and well contained. It fits well the title and phrase, and you have used the flower colour for the text, which makes for a proffessional looking poster.
