What a beautiful capture of the beautiful blooms! The way you framed it feels intentional and balanced, and the combination of light, shadows, and colours brings an almost painterly quality to the composition. Fine work! Good luck!

So dainty and even immaculate. I love how you have focused these cactus blossom with an excellent white balance control setting and angle. A lovely entry with sharp details, Phyllis. Wish you all the best in this contest.

This deserves a six. The soft focus really makes this m=image stand out. The placement of the scene and the difference between light and dark really make this a top notch photo. Thanks for sharing.

This is a lovely photograph of these white cactus flowers. Sharp focus and clarity, showing nice detail of the petals and the yellow centers. The flowers are highlighted by the darkened background. Good luck in the contest.

A good looking image posted here into the competition! Your fine, full and appropriate composition offers us a very enjoyable view of your trio of delightful blooms. Colours, textures and tones are good. Exposure and sharpness are fine. Well done and good luck!

A very beautiful visual presented here at these cacti flowers. I love the angle that you've used to present them. Those beautiful textures within the petals is really something. Wonderful to view. Thank you for sharing.

Absolutely fabulous! These flowers are gorgeous, and you have focused them Perfectly with your iPhone. I use my iPhone for all of my photography now. It's amazing what I can do!
What kind of cactus are you taking a picture of here? May I ask where you live? These flowers are stunning.
I think I just lost my chance at winning this contest! Smile

Jewell, thank so much for this 6 star rating, I greatly appreciate it! The cactus is a Gymnocalycium Mihanovichii varigated cactus. It did bloom quite often until my husky pup uprooted it and I found it just lying out of the pot. But finally it is doing well again and this is the first time that it has had 3 blooms. I live in Tarpon Springs, Florida. Thank you again:)

Wow! I am glad you saved it!

The cactus flowers are just lovely and of course the fact that they were a gift from your sister makes them extra special. I love that you captured three blooms and I like the way they are situated within the frame.
I like the soft focus on the petals and I love that they are white. The eye is drawn into the yellow center and then back out over the petals, the dark background works well to emphasize the blooms . I like also the pretty leaves in the lower frame,
You have managed the light nicely, the colors appear natural.
Well composed and presented!
Best wishes to you in this contest.
