Hello Ms. Talented! This is such a lovely close up portrait of a Carnation all pretty in pink! I love the way your "fixed lens" captured the softness of her petals. I can almost smell it!
It has the look of a fine art oil painting! Nice change of pace for your portfolio!

This is a beautiful shot of a carnation flower! You framed it well, and the light, shadows, colours, and composition worked well. Good effort!

What a unique photo of the carnations with melodramatic presentation.
I love the soft pastel colors, nice details and overall pleasing presentation. Pat very nice and so well presented

If i am honest Pat not quite shore what to make of this one,know the softness was what you wanted and it does look slighty surreal in this,and it is different as such...Brian

You have definitely captured the softness of the petals of this carnation . Composition shades, tones colors, and presentation is extremely well done. Thank you for sharing.

A good looking nature image presented here! Your fine macro composition offers us a very enjoyable view of that beautiful bloom. Textures, colours and tones are good. Exposure and sharpness are fine. Well taken!

This is a very different look of the center of the carnation. You have achieved a soft look for sure, and it really looks more like a painting as it has no clear definition that a photograph would display.

Comment from Kathy Banich


You have captured and presented this carnation in a dreamlike appearance that showcases its delicate, soft petals. The inherent, gradient color of the flower is nicely retained and adds to the surreal feeling of the image. The full frame works nicely and holds the viewers' attention, as we reflect on the beauty of blossoms.
