It is nice to know that when we are having our coldest days of the year your flowers will be in bloom this year.
Your flowers are very pretty.
The colors are very bright and vibrant.
An overall great initial impact.
Great photo, thanks for sharing.

Wonderful view and the very first thing I thought was "fabulous depth". I love the grand focus over the middle flowers with such wonderful blurred surroundings... Gives me a thought of strength and a wonderful natural breath. Beautifully done. Thanks for sharing! Good luck in the contest!

Great capture of detail and excellent depth of field. Image is nicely composed.I like that the flowers are in various stages of development, some mature with a scattering of others just starting to bloom. And it's nice seeing the white variety for a change! Thanks for sharing! :)

Lovely photo! I like how the focus fades from front to rear. The lovely blooms make me yearn for spring. Thank you for giving me a little spring early. Good luck in the contest.

I think I saw these same cone flowers in an earlier post by you. Nice composition focusing on the front and central flowers. Nice framing. The flower on trot left are blurred, but, I understand that it is the reason the others were focused so well. Thank you for sharing and best of luck with this image

Nik,
A beautiful picture of this unusual white coloured Echinacea daisies with their gold coloured cone like centres, for some crazy reason I can't explain all I can think of as I look at these, is a painting by Degas of Ballet dancers practicing. Beautiful composition framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.
Good luck in the contest
Susan

Comment from Malmax


What a lovely capture of these coneflowers in white.
Your perspective is excellent
and it shows the beautiful round center of the flower with all the delicate petals.
Detail is excellent in the flower and I like the muted background giving it some softness. Wonderful shot.

I think this is a beautiful flower photo and a good entry into this contest. It reminds so much about summer. I like the natural background as well, and with the nicely softened background the flowers are standing out in an excellent way.

Your focus is spot on and sharp showing such clear and well defined details in both the petals and the center of the flower, and the exposure is just perfect.

The flowers are filling the frame in a lovely way, but I like that you have kept an open space on the right showing the background vegetation. I think this is a lovely and well taken photo with an excellent DOF, and I wish you luck with the contest.
