Graham, I really like your composition - the position of the flower and BFs in the frame. The colors, BG and detail are all wonderful.

Graham ...love the diagonal here...and the mating bf's ...incuding the flowers completely in the dof is a good choice.

Graham, excellent DOF and plane of focus management. The floral perch is wonderful. Very nicely done!
