I kinda like the softness of this, but that might be just me. Let me know what you folks think.

I like the emerging from the shadows feel to this. Lovely yellow color as well. Very nice.

I like how it comes out of the shadows, and the softness is appropriate. I could wish for a touch more brightness.

I like this, Robert. The structure of the petals has plenty of definition without looking unnaturally emphasized.

Lovely lily but I find the image a little too dark overall for my tastes.

Bob: One of my favorite varieties superbly captured. I agree with Phil about bringing the brightness up a touch. >=))>

Beautifully composed, Bob and Charly, with lovely rendering of the petals. Like Phil I would not mind a bit more brightness, but a very nice image.

Hi Bob & Charly

The beautiful dark color tones , remind me of a fine old painting... the BG goes perfectly with the Lily

Bob:

Lovely take on this lily. Agree with increasing the luminosity of the yellow; also like to see the green bright spots in the bg dimmed.
