Very nice light and DOF and the black BG really makes it pop. Very nicely done Alan

I prefer this one Alan. I like the left to right movement a bit better. Both were nice, but as I say, I like this one a bit more.

Alan, I like the comp on this one a little better. It seems to flow more easily. If I had to super nitpick such a fine image, it would be to not have the leaf blocking the stem. Still, two thumbs up.

Alan: Now how am I supposed to decide which one I like best? Another superb shot and I like seeing this side. >=))>

Thank you for your comments

I must admit i'm liking this one more over the other image.

Just goes to show how much a subject can change just buy turning it around

Great detail in both shots Alan!! While I like both well presented shots, I'm thinking I prefer the first one. Hard to choose!! But either way, they are perfect and I congratulate you on the EP!!!
