Very pretty bloom! Great colours and very sharp. Nicely-blurred BG.
Bet you could do something cool with filters for the Photo Art Gallery, too!

Barbara: No mistaking the star of the show here. Good work with the bright lighting and shaded BG. Well done.>=))>

A pretty flower, very natural looking and simple. A straightforward look at the Cosmos. I like it. My only nit is the heavy shadow from the stamens and pistils, but it's a small nit.cool

Nicely framed, Barbara and a great job on the petals.  I don't know if the center is slightly oof or if the yellows are a touch blown.  Yellows are a pain in sunlight-they just want to blow out.

Beautiful portrait Barbara. The yellow in the center is a pleasure for my eyes. The only suggestion that I can try is lowering the higher lights in the background.
