Exceptionally beautiful, Morris. I like the off-center comp, the chosen DOF with the excellent detail on the flower, and the beautiful colors resulting from the soft light. No nits here. :toast:

Morris: A delightful find and a superb capture. Good call on the polarizer, an underutilized tool for Flora IMO. Beautiful shot. >=))>

Superb as posted Morris, especially the treatment of the light. I also like the dof decision. I like it very much but could also see a square crop to put more emphasis on the bloom. Very appealing mood in this as well.

I like the water droplets, and the color throughout the photo is great Morris. Nicely composed. Very pretty.
