There is always one who marches to a different drummer. Taken at Wat Khao Lan Thom in Khao Takiab.

Unknown flower in Nong Khai. I lost count of how many composition rules of thumb it breaks, but I like it anyway.

I actually like the composition Homer. Too many photographers are careful to center a single subject like that and make sure they get it all. Yours is interesting.
My brain is like an Internet browser; 12 tabs are open and 5 of them are not responding, there's a GIF playing in an endless loop,... and where is that annoying music coming from?

Spider Lily - Crinum Asiaticum

Actually it fits "rule of thirds" composition rules ideally

Maybe the highlights are blown?

Nice image

FatBoy,

I don't know if it's because I'm viewing from the UK, but most of your photos today are becoming repetetive ie an image of a padlock with the message, "Content Protected By Owner."
