One of my favorite you have posted Kostas !!!!!! I like the careful in camera framing and overall feel .. love the surrounding bg !!! About all I can think to do is lighten the flower just a tad to make it pop !!! Big Congrats !!!!

Hi Kostas,
This is a lovely composition, image and capture. I like the precise framing of your purple lady. The color rendition and fine details are superb...I like the texture of the main leaf that showcases the flower. A few points to consider to bring this work of art over the top...:D I recommend adjusting the mid-tones just a tad to lighten up the flower and the supporting leaf. Also would clone out the tip of the leaf thats peeking in on the lower right side of the frame, my eye keeps going there...:) aside from these minor changes, you did very well...proud of you Kostas...keep them coming...:cool:

I really like your title, Kostas, and the image is very nice, as well. I like the contrast between the dark bg and the green leaf and purple flower and the effect of the "hair" which gives me the urge to reach out and touch it. Congrats!
