I like the neutral contrast as it looks more icy. The only problem I have with it is the blade of grass right across the flower. I also like the big round blobs of light in the background.

I really like the colors of these flowers, as well as the texture. Great image.

Hi Paul,

This image certainly tells the ending of an untold story. I think I would move the bike and tree to the right of the picture - giving the bike somewhere to go. :-)

Great picture

The only thing I can see wrong with this picture is clipping the second flower, which is a bit distracting. If you kept some of the stem in the lower flower it would be fine.

Great job on sharpness, I know how hard these flowers are to photograph!

I just had to sign in to comment on this one!

Absolutely Great! The city by the way-side, the mist rising off the water and the cold ground, and most of all, the colorful sunset.

Great job.

Nice shot, it looks like it is leaning just a little bit to the right, but maybe that's me.

The only way I find to eliminate the flare is to expose the moon like a normal sunny day. I just figured this out not long ago, but the sun is shining there like it does here. The only thing is, is that the moon is surrounded by black. So, if you expose for the moon, everything else is black. You could shoot a double exposure, exposing the landscape/black out the moon on the first shot and exposing the moon on the second shot, or take it to photoshop and add a diffent picture of the moon.
