Koru (O510)

Paul from Levin

I'm a bit puzzled. I see Koru as one of Nature's fine works of art and photograph them with respect. So why am I puzzled? Because although people regularly admire my photographs and even buy them, I don't remember any occasion when anyone has commented specifically on a Koru image, let alone buy one. So, I'm going to put up a few Koro images and observe with interest viewers responses, if any. I might come to understand something behind my mystery.
