Whoa...digital medium format - nice.

Very nice details in that little bloom Ant. This is a very nice shot.

Absolutely lovely pose of this simple flower. I am a little shaky on the OOF leaves to the right and left of the stem at the bottom of the frame. Still a very worthy composition, expertly taken and processed.

Very nice Ant! You have captured excellent detail in the flower with a good clean non-distracting background. I think a square crop would also work well here, especially considering how the flower is leaning out of the frame.
Beautiful color in the center of the flower. Well done!

A lovely sense of delicacy attaches to this image, Ant - I like the high key effect very much. Might just have liked a touch more sharpness in the front anthers, but the overall feel of the image is very nice indeed.
