The tight crop is super cool. The lighting and colors are sharp and clean. I think I see some cobwebs around the center which makes me feel better as I also have critters living among my blooms. The muted background is perfect to highlight the flower. I have the traditional Black-eyed Susan's. This color combo is stunning.

This Black Eyed Susan fills its frame with elegance. This Carmel beauty stands out and its colors are its beauty. The center is well shaped and is intriguing. Jodi this is excellence. Ray

I like your photo. It's vibrant and colorful. I am enjoying it much. Are they easy to grow? I like looking at pictures of flowers and landscape photography.

Your close-up is exquisite. How the color of the petals changed from dark color shades to shades of orange at the tips of the petals is impressive. Your photo has good depth, is perfect focused, exposed and treated with mixed media. I appreciate the sharpness of detail and the realism of color and light. The mixed media is excellent composed. The tight framing is sufficient. The composition is balanced.

I love these flowers, we saw a lot of them up north when we were camping , they were planted n the campground. The red over the golden yellow petals is so pretty, so vibrant!
You have photographed this one well Jodi with emphasis on the black eyed Susan center. This flower steps forward from the background .
This is well focused, the image is clear, exposure is correct, the colors appear natural.
Well composed and presented!

This is a lovely flower Jodi, and you have pictured it well. I especially like how lovely the light is falling on it, and it is also standing out well from the softened background. I do however find the partial flower on the right a bit distracting.

Your focus is spot on and sharp showing clear and well defined details, and also the exposure is very good.

The tight cropping is working well, and I think this flower is well placed within the frame. All together a lovely and well taken photo, and with a very good DOF.
