Very nice shot. The background compliments the soft pastel colors of the flower. My eye keeps going to the tip of the flower in the lower right hand corner, so I would crop it out so it does not take focus off of the beautiful flower. Great job.

I've never seen these before. Very interesting. Nice color, light, and background.

It's funny how the eye can be drawn to something in an image. I think the color in the lower right helps to maintain the balance, which would be too heavy with color on the left without it. And I rather like how it peeks out at me.

I love this. I agree about the tiny tip of flower in the corner, but this is sweet!

Well seen and well executed, the beautiful colors of the clover are set off nicely against the bg

Charles: My 1¢ nit is the little partial in the RLC. The rest of this from subject to capture is outstanding. >=))>
