on your left

comments are welcome. thanks

very nice!

Art, both your focal flower and b/g here are exceptional, is a pity the two secondary flowers are where they are, as to me they bugger up a otherwise nice composition. If you have the editing program to remove the two secondary flowers it would make a big difference here. Think would also try a square format.

thanks Amy & Roger. Roger, I initially hesitated on the framing, square vs 3:2 and you may be right that square would render better. Made shots with isolated flower, but did not looked as good as with companions to my eye. thanks for comments, very helpful.

class act.

Beautiful color, nice lighting which brings the lovely translucent petals!! Love DoF in this image!!

thank you Seisho, Dror and Yazeed for such kind words! Regards:)
