I really love the sweeping lines Ian. Great POF. Wonderful use of DOF. This one works really well, I think.

Ian- In addition to what Nathan said, I like that subtle wash in the front for the yellows at the center to shine. Looks all beautiful to me.

Gorgeous, Ian. I really like the subtle striped bg and the single, precise pof. Another excellent cosmos.

Beautiful colors. I like the flow and sense of motion it inspires.

I like the few stamens in focus & the striped flow of color!

Fabulous image, Ian. Colors, depth of field, and composition, all spot on. I love the purple wash in front of the sharp center.
