What a unique setting for this columbine. The driftwood frame sets this apart and above the rest.

I really like your composition, with the contrast between the flower and the lower part.

Congrats

Gorgeous columbine with an intriguing frame of branch around it Gerald. I would really like to see more of the detail in the wood with a bit deeper DOF here. Not sure if that is possible since you were already shooting at f11.

I like very much the original composition. For my personal taste I like better a sharp element in front of the subject but I understand that in this photo was probably impossible to achieve. Anyway I love the photo.

Beautiful, Jerry! Personally, I like the focus as is. The wood adds a frame, but does not compete with the flower.
