That's a beauty, Phil. Very nice detail. I like the OOF bud in the BG.

Nice shot Phil. I'd be tempted to up the saturation/contrast a touch, and maybe add a subtle vignette. Strong composition with the complimentary bud in the background!

Very nice, Phil! Composition and DOF work well here. :smile:

Lovely another one that I have not seen in the wild. Great detail and I like the color.

Really nice. In addition to the nicely placed and represented main subject, I like the v-shape created by the stems.
