Soft Fuschia

I couldn't resist this one... It's soft but I managed the shot I was aiming for. The left petal bugs me in that it touches the margin but I like the image regardless. I'm always happy to hear your feedback.

Sarah: A tiny bit more room on the left might be nice but that's pretty trivial IMO. Marvelous colors and BG. Well done.>=))>

Great color Sarah and I like your dof decision. I agree with Bill abut the left side and I might also take a soft clone brush around the top of the center flower to reduce the halo around it. It's a very minor thing but my eye immediately goes there. I love the mood in this.

Love the softness of this, Sarah, and the lovely colouring. I think the amount in focus is about right, though I wonder if the front flower stamens had been sharper would it look even better ? Whatever, the eye dances around the image delightfully.
