Philip: Just superb! Great comp and sense of movement through the frame. Excellent DOF choice as well. One of your best IMO. >=))>

I'll just echo Bill's comment Philip and also add that for me a lot of the strength in the image comes from the fine subject/ground separation. Really beautiful work.

Very pretty, Philip . I like the drooping stem holding the bloom while another curving stem entering the frame from the right bottom.

I like the simplicity of this image. the tonalities of green are well handled,
and you have a good DOF. Most importantly, I like the diagonal angle of
the main subject. Well done, Philip.

A beautiful specimen in a great comp! I really like how the branches make such a graceful s-curve. Isolation of subject from background is very good.
