My compliments to both you and the flower.

My sincere compliments. Beautiful image.

I agree with the comments above. My compliments. It was odd that I was working on a photo taken at precisely the same location - but missing the model.

My sincere compliments on this excellent photograph.

Forgive me for being pedantic here. However, I have come to dislike the anonymous rating system used on photo.net. From the title of the photograph I infer that you saw the colors and the shapes of the flowers in terms of bursts of fireworks, movement, a dynamic image. However, the photograph does not capture your mind's image. To those of us who click the mouse and the photograph suddenly appears, the image is of some flowers and nice colors. May I respectfully suggest that you reshoot this and try it from different angles, not just standing next to the flowers. Also, create a focal point of the image and decide how you wish the viewers eye to see what you see. The image needs to engage the viewers brain in some way to see what you see.

Good luck.

David

Tom,

For me this captures some of the very basic elements of good photography. It shows that neither high resolution optics nor brilliant colors are required to produce an excellent photograph. My sincere compliments.

David

Excellent image. It stimulates the imagination and tells a story. Difficult to accomplish with a single image. My compliments.

Regards.

David

An excellent photograph using high angle light that brings out the texture of the petals. My only criticism is a matter of personal taste, I suppose. For me, the matching color frame is distracting from the image of the flower and the colors within the image. The most powerful element of the image is the photograph.

My best regards.

I suspect that viewing this image on screen doesn't do justice. It's tough to produce an IR image that isn't simply a curiosity or a surreal view of landscapes. This one has very good composition and depth and has more to offer than simply a dream-like picture of trees. If the resolution is very high, it is probably better than I think. Good work.

David

This is a very compelling and imaginative image. I particularly like the figure with the raised hand at the bottom. Compared with the plethora of common, unimaginative images that never the less receive high ratings on this forum, your images are honestly very good. My compliments.
