very delicate capture, nicely composed and cropped (with a very pleasing bg);

Quite simple really, I've fallen in love with this beautiful shot. I get a 3D type of effects with the perspective and that background. Sharp exactly where it should be, I even like the way the far leaves fall OOF. Extremely well seen and taken IMO M8t.

All the best Randy, gorgeous colours in this. Must show my wife. :toast:

Danny.

Very pretty. This has almost an oriental art look about it. Well done!

Randy: Exceptionally nice image. Did you take any with a horizontal orientation? That would seem to be the more conventional presentation but I like this as is. >><>

Great image, and the white in the flowers are great exposed. Very sharp indeed.

Hanne

Randy,

I just can't put in words how fantastic this shot is, wow. But that's what perfect lighting does for an image, produces a perfect image. Did you do any horizontals of this flower?
