The details of the center of this flower are crisp. You captured this macro shot well. Lighting is good. Subject is interesting and fascinates any lover of botanicals.
Good luck in this contest!

The focus in the center of this flower is really nice . I love the detail you see up front and then a nice transition to the background. Very beautiful picture.

Wonderful macro picture of this daylily! It is in great focus with so much cool detail! Love the blurred background! It shows a lot that you usually wouldn't see! GREAT job! And good luck in the competition!

I like this work because it is so classical in its concept and execution and in its atmosphere; The light, colour and composition have worked well. Good effort!

A beautiful image with meticulously sharp details. The depth of field is quite remarkable for such a high magnification. Best of luck in the contest.

Excellent entry for the contest. Great close up of the centre of a beautiful Lily. I like the angle you used for this showing the stamens looking as if they are a bunch of dancing bananas! Very imaginative presentation. Good luck in the contest. Suzanne
