Hello Annie

Great flower here. I really like the background. Love the mix of colors and the smooth presentation. The blurred elements of this picture are beautiful.

The subject bloom is well done and I especially like the gold portion on the lower petal.

This is just a really neat piece of art. You have done well.

Thank you for sharing.

Roger

Very pretty presentation. Love the b/g with the light glowing. The colors remind me of Christmas. Such a beautiful, clear capture. Great job!

Very beautiful.The background looks very attractive with the light appearing to be radiating from the centre.The petals of the flowers are gracefully shaped with lovely texture and the bright red colour and variations of the red colour.Good attractive and clear image.
