Nice blooms/tree. Really like the purplish colors and the brownish as well, along with the white in the flowers. The leaves are nice but big. I suppose they are larger than the blooms. Background done so nicely. Enjoyed the commentary. Best wishes in the contest.

    Hi Glena, Those leaves are the largest I have ever seen on a tree. They can be up to 12" long and 5" wide. I swear you could fit 8-10 blossoms on a leaf. Thank you so much for the great review!

This is a beautifully created mixed media post of the wispy flowers. You have framed it well. The light and shadows, colours and, composition have worked out well. Good luck!

This is great entry for the contest. I like the surreal look and feel. It has an almost magical sense and character to it.

Very nice after photo work. Best of the best in the contest.

Really stunning mixed media work on this flower photo! I like the bold edging that makes the subtle colors of these Catalpa blooms pop! The vivid greens make a perfect contrast and the lighting is well done. Great entry to the contest, best wishes!

Your mixed media creation is exquisite. The blossoms of the unusual tree are beautiful. Their colors are superb. The photo has good depth and is excellent focused and exposed. I appreciate the sharpness of detail and the realistic look of light and color. The shallow background emphasizes the blossoms perfectly. The mixed media is expertly composed. The composition is balanced.
