The title is very fitting for the piece. Great color and skillfully presented. The arrangement of the flowers is also nicely done. The background colors and blur make the bouquet and vase stand out even more. The green cloth at the bottom looks great with the brown of the vase. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you so very much for the fabulous review, Loyd. As far as software, I use Paint Shop Pro 9, but for your second question, I don't own a camera, so I can't help you out there. Again, thank you! :) Shawn

OK and thanks, you are welcome, LOyd

LOL. Wasn't sure if you were looking for a camera, or that you thought I use a camera for my work. No camera/photos here, Loyd. Like I said, I don't even own one, but wish I did. One of these days maybe I'll talk hubby into getting me a good one. :)

Thanks
Comment from nonarom
Beside the amazing combination of colors and delicacy of the flowers, I like very much the background; this blurred mixture of green, blue and yellow create an ethereal atmosphere behind the bouquet, a special unusual space - very nice.

Comment from Raphael Photography
You have created a beautiful artwork. Nicely balanced and with very soothing colours and presentation. I especially like the way you have done the backround. Good center of interest.

Thank you so very very much for the fantastic review and rating, Virginian. And if you meant more stars than this beautiful galaxy you just awarded, I consider that a fabulous compliment, and I deeply appreciate it :) Shawn

YW. I've enjoyed your work.
Comment from Dazzleme
This is so lovely. I really love the type of flowers you have used withthe roses. They really stand out nicely here as part of the composiiton. The background is excellent. The vase is a nice added feature as well. Not sure if your technique has worked here with the shadows but I like the effect it is giving to the artwork. Nicely done Shawn.

Thank you so very much, D. If you're talking about the shadows behind the vase, I really don't care for them either. Going to disable it for a while and see if I can fix it better :) Again, thank you! :) Shawn
-
I liked the shadows Shawn. I think they gave a striking effect to the artwork.
-
I was thinking of changing it anyway, D, because my background ended up looking too much like the sky, so therefore there wouldn't be any shadows behind the vase and flowers. I should have fixed it before uploading, but sometimes I just get excited and anxious, and trying to hurry to get posted before my phone starts ringing. LOL. Thanks again for the wonderful review :) shawn

That is a lovely digital still life/ The colors are outstanding. The flowers and the vase are beautiful. I love the shapes. The background is pleasant and colorful, too.

very pretty still life. detail is good on the flowers and the vase. i like the blurring of the background. i think the piece of cloth could use a little more.

Thank you so much, Sandra. The cloth could use a little more...what? Detail? Color? :) Shawn
-
a little more detail and contrast.
-
Thank you, Sandra. It's really odd that things look so much brighter in my program, and when I upload it to the sight, I often have to go back and adjust it. Again, thanks for getting back to me :)
Comment from mamamary
Very nicely composed. Is that a button? I love the colors. The lighting on the flowers is very nice. Really adds to the picture. The detail in the flowers really brings the entire picture up a notch. Great job.

Thank you so very much for the excellent review, Mary. Regarding the button...if you mean the center of the vase, it's just decoration. Again, thank you!
