    Bob, I like how the interior of the flower really jumps off the page & how that contrasts against that beautiful swirl of blues.

    Looks like an explosion from the center of the image...well done, colorful and eye catching.

    Bob, I was at Longwood today but I had missed the blue poppies when they were there. Nice job with the processing. I love the original capture and the subject!!

    Hi Bob, love the blue color and the processing is nicely done as well. If it were mine I might evict the tiny bit of green background showing on the left side of the image...but that's just me.

    Lovely capture. Love the colors--especially those blues--and the details. I might crop some off the right. Nicely done.
