Very Pretty My Friend! Love the sheer elegance you put in your work! You always create the loveliest images.
Both background and flowers make this an outstanding image. I wish I had a six left to give you!

In regards to your placement in the Mixed Media artist of the Year I want you to know I am a HUGE fan of both you and Donkeyoatey! THe rating between the two of you was "Oh So Close!" IN my mind you both tied for this honor. I know your year end placemnet might not matter to you, but I wanted YOU to know how highly I think of you! Congratulations for your extraordianry ranking in 2013 My Friend! :o) Helvi

Thank you so very much for the lovely review Helvi. It is nice to hear that you think that both Donkey and I are equal. Of course I could have posted more to take the first place, but it doesn't really matter so much to me. I have held the first place for two years, and think it is only fair that Donkey got it this time.

Thank you for your always kind words, your encouragement and for your constant support.

Love the presentation. This is so divine. Love that white leaves and tiny flowers, It looks like an ornament. I wonder if what kind of plant is this. It looks like a family of pointsettia. Maybe, a winner for this contest. Perfectly framed.

Fantastic composition, handsome arrangement - spectacular presentation - I never saw this flower at all with these green lines in the petals - I agree with the tiny flowers, a very unusual flower and bloom, your image is handsome form composition, angle, sharpness and exposure, your modification created again a wonderful piece of art, letting these special flowers fill the space in a very harmonious way - soft, fragile, delicate a true specialty of yours to create a beautiful ambiance and radiant energy - well done, all the best for the contest

Beautiful, gentle image- the composition is excellent- the fine grasses add movement and flow to the image..the monochrome effect of the colour tones is excellent. You did an amazing job with the background - again it adds movement to the image. Good Luck in the contest !!
