I've had this in my pending submission file since early in the spring so thought I would share this pristine calla shrouded by its leaves. All comments welcome.>=))>

Outstanding textures. Not a nit in sight for me, Bill.

No nits, just envious you have a pending submission file. I never know what I will submit until one gob smacks me in the face. Even then, I am often wrong!

Very nice, Bill, especially in the larger version where the textures of the centre and the petals come out more strongly. The flower looks lovely set against the leaves.

The background integrates well with the flower. The color is delicious. I love the curved lines and the depth.

Your POV makes the viewer feel they could just get enveloped by this flower! Very nice clean and frame-filling view with good handling of the whites and lighting. Love the flowing curves and design of these beautiful flowers, which your image showcases well.
