    Hey Denise, I really like this shot. Excellent focus on the center of the flower, and great look in the DOF and love the colors. Well done.

    Denise,

    Like your photo especially the color and use of limited DOF. Good positioning in the frame. Did you try a wider shot?

    Thanks for posting....

    Lovely pastel colors and a nice comp. The DOF you chose really makes this image, IMO. Well done.

    Very painterly Denise, almost like an illustration with great soft colors and excellent compo.

    Outstanding! Love the color palette and comp on this one, Denise. You've got a small flaw on the lowest leaf on the right - might darken that or clone over it to make it less noticeable...everything else rocks!

    Hey Denise,
    I like the way you kept the entire bloom in with all the leaves and the selective focus is very well thought out here! Very nicely done!

    The above comments have said it all. A lovely image: composition, color, dof. It has the feel of a watercolor.
