Stephen: I haven't shot zinnias in a long time and there is a large bed of them in our side yard just like this. Might have to pay them a visit tomorrow.

Well done. >=))>

Nicely done, Stephen ! Especially like the way the centre is captured - some lovely soft/sharp structures there.

Nice comp and colors, Stephen. Viewing the thumbnail, I thought the bg might be too busy, but viewing this at regular size, I think it works well.

Stephen, beautiful Zinia flower with a splendid center, as always with this flower. The subject could be more impressive if all the greenery in the background were much darker and cooler. It's only my personal opinion.
Take care.

I love the oranges in this. They are cleaner and brighter than "Orange on Orange". The composition is excellent. I agree that the background leaves could be a little darker.
