Love the textured background which brings the flowers to the foreground in an almost 3d effect. The colours are excellent and the use of full and budding blooms great. Good focus.

Very masculine color choices, dont feel dainty whatsoever but sturdy. Think the white light on the bugs adds to this feeling of solid strong flowers. Mice center of flower detail and contrasts.

Beautiful choice of background colours helping show the details of the flowers. Clear images of the petals and stamen. Nicely arranged and well framed.

A very fine image. I really like the colors and the sharp rendering of the flower and the buds. I find the background a bit distracting, but of a beautiful tonality. Good luck in the contest.

Beautiful creation..looks more like a painting than a photograph. The sumptuous colours are excellent..The Lighting is superb revealing such excellent texture and detail in the flowers. The background incorporating the flower reflection is very good as is the overall composition and framing.
