Congratulations yet again on your win. So, deserved. Beautiful, beautiful flowers. I really like those purples and the ones that have white and purple petals as well. The background is blurred so nicely. Great scene with skilled photograhy.

    Thanks very very much. They were in flower along the drive as I left the house for the church when I got married unfortunately back then it was all b&w photographs so couldn't see beauty.

this is a great entry Mary into the "Beautiful Flowers Contest";
I like how you frame the central Cineraria flower by the other purple flowers;

Mary, this is a vibrant, gorgeous flower!

The colors are stunning and I've never seen these types of flowers before.

You have done a great job, not only growing them, but also photographing them.

wonderful job.

A good looking image posted here into the competition! Your fine, full and appropriate composition offers us an enjoyable view of view of your gorgeous blooms. Exposure and sharpness are fine. Well done and good luck!

Oh Mary, this needs promoting it's so beautiful! It's such a shame, and a vicious circle, the fewer promotions, the fewer reviews ending in no dollars to earn!
Your image is beautifully focused showing so much detail in these very pretty flowers and, with the shallower dof the background is beautifully blurred.
Your exposure is spot on, giving excellent natural colours and I just love that purple against the green.
Very good luck in the competition.
Charlotte
