Strange, given your original title, but the first thing I thought of looking at the thumb was ' planet shining in the sky ' A very beautiful image, Bruce, thw softness just right, anf the lighting bringing out the flower's qualities perfectly.

Hi Bruce,
You have just enough light to pick up the yellows and purples. Leave this one as is .....................Jim

Funny. My first thought was "Battleship Galactica." But I like it just as is. Do not be tempted to make any changes!

Very good portrait of this small dahlia. One little thing, the large amount of black bothers me on this one. I would play with a different crop and maybe not having the flower in the dead center.

Wow I love this! The color transition and the gorgeously focused petals on the black BG make this a standout!

Just beautiful Bruce! I love the slow surfacing of this very nice flower. I like better the previous title more evocative. Splendid photo.
