This is from the same day as my last Cosmos post.
Canon 60D, f/5.6, 1/1000, ISO800, 70mm, Topaz Denoise on background
I appreciate all comments and critiques.

I love the ring of darker pink, Barb. Great colors and a nice, classic comp.

Lovely, crisp rendering of the flower, Barb - and I especially like the way the purplish tones in the bg set off the deep pinks of the petals.

Very pretty floral subject, Barb. I like the look of the flower itself, but, as with your previous Cosmos, I personally am not completely sold on the bg. Although this is obviously subjective, you might look for angles and comps that give the subject more separation from the bg, if possible.

Barb: I'll generally ditto Scott. Another approach would be to get much closer and practically fill the frame. The symmetry of the flower would lend it to a centered square crop. Just my 2¢. >=))>

Barb, I generally agree with Bill and Scott, but I also think this is a step in the right direction from your previous Cosmos image.
