Hi Milan, very nice color combination and wonderful clean BG. Excellent use of flash (no highlights in the drops, shadows and light not too harsh). The water drops add just the right amount of interest.

Very nice composition. Love the colors, background and water drops.

Beautiful image, Milan...lovely details throughout and nice use of flash! One thing I notice is the composition - I love that you went vertical with this long, thin flower and would like to see more stem to help balance out the flower heads in the image. Maybe a little less space at the top and more at the bottom?

Lovely colors and soft lines. The blurred BG is perfect for the flowers. The water drops are an added bonus.

Hey Milan, I like the comp, good details and great BG. Agree on a little of the top.:)

[Vida van der Walt]

Lovely image Milan. Beautiful colours, lovely detail and bg. Ditto use of flash. Also agree with a bit off the top.:)

Thank you very much for comments!
To answer about compo: I always left more space on the direction of moving (animals) or growing (plants). Since the stem is nothing special, I just show a small part of them and focus more on flowers.

Best to all!
Milan
