Weirdest thing I dreamed about the image of your very post here last night, and have no clue why my subconscious did that, but I decided to today that I had better review it! Its kind of freaky! I just read for the fist time how you had to cut around each pelatoid, and that sounds like the kind of artistic project I would get locked into, so maybe some subliminal psychic sympathy there... This is a lovely post very well done! Thanks for sharing!

Helvi, excellent image!

I love how you handled the most tedious of jobs to trim that flower out of the background. Very nicely done!

Colors are popping and this is actually an exciting image to see.

Well done!

Oh my goodness! This is a flower that I love and have only seen in photographs . This is beautiful and I really appreciate the way you share your multi stepped process with us, we see the time and thought you have applied.
I can see that this Passion flower is well focused, it's sharp and clear and your exposure was correct, you absolutely have accomplished what you intended, it does indeed look as though I could reach in and snap the frilly petals in half, they appear icy! The colors and tones are so pretty and the flower steps forward from the softened green tones behind it.
Very well presented! This is a pleasure to view!

Comment from Ray Gordon


Nancy, you have produced this beautiful creation of an Icy Passion flower. All your hard work has more than payed off. I have been to Bermuda where they have a perfumery and they use passion flowers, what an outstanding fragrance. You have captured the essence of the Icy Passion flower. Ray

Your long and laborious procedure deserves a "6" as features of this work also does. That half round below the green is outstanding as other areas and the blurred background. Fine work, my friend Nancy, and thanks so much for sharing.

You did a marvelous job on this photo. The petals stand out well against the background. The focus is excellent. The placement of the flower in the frame is very good. I really like this photo.
