I Wish I Was A Punk Rocker (With Flowers In My Hair)

Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair
In 77 and 69 revolution was in the air
I was born too late into a world that doesn't care
Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair

When the head of state didn't play guitar,
Not everybody drove a car,
When music really mattered and when radio was king,
When accountants didn't have control
And the media couldn't buy your soul
And computers were still scary and we didn't know everything

Please select the best three photos.
These were taken on Saturday by my daughter for the camera club competition
Thank you. It is really appreciated :-)

davids Beautiful images - but it's a scary thought to think that you might actually wear something like this in your hair!

tbranscum I like #10, 11, & 12. Also there is something about #1 that catches my eye. Tell her she is doing a great job and keep up the good work. Does she have her own blog?

neusnet Beautifuls flowers.

mattandbranson I love the tropical feel of 1 and 5. 6 is a unique capture, and I think 11 is simple but gorgeous! =)

ankush vimawala wow, awesome set, great colors, what kind of flower is the red, blue and yellow one?
ankush vimawala · 2007-10-09: 13:21
eljapa Mmm difficult, def. #4 and #8, having some doubt to pick 11 or 5. Think i'm going for 5 for the colors.
eljapa · 2007-10-09: 13:36
sunshineand you must be an old hippy.

i went with how the photographs made me feel.
and i really like number nine (9) quite a lot.

also the two little white flowers of number eleven (11).

and the sweetness of number two (2).
sunshineand · 2007-10-09: 14:20
vollenda #4, 5, and 9 are my favorites! She did an awesome job with some very cool compositions and light. :)

youlookmahvelous Gee, I am starting to miss summer already, these are gorgeous!

lennonf Really great flower shots. Nicely composed.
lennonf · 2007-10-09: 23:22
lennonf 4 for the angle from where it was taken (not the usual from above or side shot.) 5 for the colours and nicely composed macro (could lose the background a bit more). and 12 a classic flower shot.
Thats my choice
