Beautiful, Sandy. I like how you took advantage of (or made) the opening to get more of the center in view. Perfect DOF too.

Ah, peony time again!!!! I like the sharpness of the center and the soft pink surrounding it. Nice mood to the image.

All these half colors together are splendid, Sandy. An image very delicate, soft, elegant: I really love it.
Cheers.

Wonderfully seen, composed and captured Sandy. The peek-a-boo in the foreground is used well in my opinion. Superb.
