Commenst and Ratings are most welcome.

Perfectly composed! She said: I am beautiful... but look over there... my sister has just blossomed! She is as glorious as I am... Go see for yourself Douglas...

It's a beautiful scene, very well composed and seen. Excellent composition, angle, focus. For me, it lacks in the lighting department and in depth. I get little energy (soft, subdued, or otherwise) from the lighting and, despite the depth of field, the consistent low light gives the image a flatness. Have you played around with levels and curves on this one? I sense you were after a muted feel, which seems totally appropriate. But I still think there's more life that can be channeled within that muted arena.

...very good composition and delicate light. Best Regards. A Warm Regard from Rome. Glauco

Hi Glaco Thanks again and regards from So. California!

I like the feel of this piece and the composition. The shadow flower in the background really sets the place and location for the flower in hardfocus ain the front. And , of course, we know the colors are real. Good shape and balance. Were you able to do this lineup and shot real time or is this a composition? (It doesn't make it any less effective or well done, either way.) good job. -- Charles

Hi Charles, I love this one too. This is a single shot. Shot from very close to the flower. The image out of the camera is a little large and I choose this crop. Thanks for taking the time to look and comment.
