The color of this flower is gorgeous, especially how it changes in the center. It pops from the background really showing it off. The focus is very clear. Good luck in the contest

Comment from Renate-Bertodi
good heavens, it looks like one of those things you put on christmas trees made of tinsel and shiny papers. Amazing. Are those spikes poisonous? Do bees and birds like it for its bright colours, but what do they peck? where. Getting into that centre looks more than difficult! Gorgeous, eye catching bloom.

No not all all. They are like any other sweet smelling and sweet tasting flowers. They are small and have thin stems .Marvelous creation by Mother nature. Common in India. I appreciate your nice review. Thank you so much for your support. Glad you liked it.

You have impressively produced a vividly beautiful floral picture that reminds me of bursting celebratory fireworks, and also of a fast spinning pinwheel or a fast spinning ferris wheel.

Beautifully done! Excellent detail with vibrant colors make it just pop, especially those little white tips that just sparkle in the light. Great job brushing out the background too. Immensely appealing and well done.

My pleasure!

Comment from Lucien van Oosten
I like the overall composition, the background compliments the flowers coloration, and helps push it towards the viewer.
I do think that the are where it needs improvement is the focus, the white tips need to be in better focus.
Overall a nice image.

Thank you for allowing me to review your work. My hope is my comments are useful, and give you a understanding for my less then 5 rating of your work.
Take care
Be safe
Lucien
