Hi Sandy, a wonderful comp. Soft painterly look and select/darkening of b/g .... not sure if it is a precise as needed. Like the fresh glad 'look'.

Sandy:
Striking color in this variety and really pops with the black bg. Also like the curvy stem, the soft look but wish it was not cut off at the base.

Glads are a difficult subject and you've handled them nicely. Like the comp, color and the softening effect. Well done!

Nice comp on this one! I also like your choice of border! I am not exactly crazy about the soft effect, but that is just personal taste....still it is very pretty!

Hi Sandy.
The two flowers are really glorious; soft in the best proportion.
Cheers.
