Quietly and simply beautiful. Good dof for f/5.6. The duotone BG is nicely blurred and serves well to help the bluebells to really stand out. devil

Beautifully presented, Graham, with lovely touches of purple in the flowers. Excellent detail and the perfect backdrop. I like, too, how the flowers fall into the frame. First class flower portrait devil

They seem a bit worse for wear, Graham, but the lines and the colors are very appealing. Nice job with the BG too.

Interesting mix of a soft background with the rather "hard" look at the details of the flowers. I think this background helps emphasize the the character of the flowers, like a portrait of a proudly mature face.

Lovely, Graham. I love the light and bg in this one, as well as the composition.
