A nice job on the dof to get the paintbrush pretty much all in focus, Gerald. Since most of the rock bg is oof, I'd be tempted to crop off both the top and bottom to eliminate most of it.

Gerald: Paintbrush is one of my favorite flowers and I like this setting that you've found them in. I agree with Dennis regarding a slight crop but I like the diagonal arrangement of the flowers in the frame. >=))>

If I cropped this it would only be a bit from the top. I love the unique setting you captured.

I agree with both Dennis and Bill.

Gerald, very nice image. I like the diagonal lines of the paintbrush and the black line in the background. I agree that a bit should be cropped from the top.

A very good spot, Gerald - so nice to see the flowers against the rocks. The composition overall works very well, though getting the upper rock sharp with the rest might have looked even better. Whatever, it is a lovely image.
