Well composed, interesting take on this geranium, Ian. I like the streaky bg. The flower looks almost like it is rapidly moving backward. Looks a little like an in camera zoom although I can tell it isn't.

A lovely soft and classic portrait. I definitely like the streaky BG.

Ian - The textured lines radiate inward (kind of) making the viewer focus the attention to the bloom. The green wash on the petals is very subtle and the way it should be. The geranium series has been very entertaining

This is a neat look at this flower, Ian. The softness surrounding the flower creates a fine feeling of movement with it feeling like the flower is adrift in a moving sea of green and red. The details seen below the flower are a fine addition.
