    Wow there's not a whole lot wrong with that Ron! Super exposure excellent detail. I also like the shape of the crop too.

    Very nice! I love Cyclamen--my flower of choice for the winter months, and see very few photographed. Love the petal curving around stem--typical Cyclamen. You captured the beautiful color changes in the petals. There are three little black spots on the flower you might consider cloning out. Excellent work.

    Hi Ron.

    This is quite beautiful...! my only suggestion if you wanted to try something is to slightly darken the very left hand petal edge to give it a bit more contrast against the BG... might 'define' that edge a little better.

    regards

    Hi Ron. This looks good - even on my borrowed laptop! Very nice work with the lightbox and stacking yet again!
