Aloha John, you are invited to add your lovely image to Aloha Hawaii Nei http://groups.imagekind.com/alohahawaiinei. Aloha 'oe, Sharon Mau

Aloha John, thank you for submitting your image to Aloha Hawaii Nei. Beautiful work, it isn't easy getting a good shot of a hanging Heliconia in it's natural habitat. One needs to set up a background, other wise the beautiful bloom is lost in a tangle of stems and leaves of varying stages of decay. I have taken the largest leaves, those which are about 10 feet or higher and used them in a loose arrangement behind the bloom, and even with the natural raindrops, they are still not quite right. So, your idea is one I have also been considering, replacing the background completely. And your rendition is a beautiful creative piece. It should be very popular as a greeting card and a print. It would be nice with text as well. It is lovely with the white layer background. http://groups.imagekind.com/dimensions. Aloha 'oe

Aloha, Sharon. Thank you for taking so much time to visit my galleries and to write such an encouraging comment. I wish I could enjoy it in its natural habitat. You are lucky!

And the text you used is fantastic, it is a beautiful choice of font, so perfect for the tropical theme.
