Thank you Elisabetta. This was a little display and quite well hidden. Best shot of the day though.
Comment from Charlotte Morse
A very lovely shot in all its simplicity. I like that you've included the frame and how the height of the flowers decreases from left to right.
The quality of your photo is superb, showing the flowers in their true colourful glory.
Very good luck in the contest.

I like the simplicity of this scene. Simple but colorful. The tight framing is just right. The rustic textured window created a nice frame. Great focus, angle, and lighting. A lovely photo for this Flower Contest.

Thank you soul and thanks to whoever cut this hole in a plank of wood ... and stuck some flowers into it

Hi Paul, I so wish I had a six left! I don't know why it is but I love these flowers in a bottle lined up the way they are. It's a little different and very cool! It's also fun to look at. I like the colors too. Great shot for the flower contest! Good Luck!

Thank you so much Nancy. After wandering around admiring the sculptures and floral arrangements this little scene somehow really stood out.

Hi Len.. Yeah, I know the feeling very well. A whole day and only one maybe three takes I like.
But I would say without equivocation that this shot made the day - all it takes is one really good keeper and the rest of the day's disappointment fades away.
I like the way you incorporated the wood as a frame - excellent.
The exposure is airtight and nailed shut. All the colors are bright bold and accurate in tonality and hue.
The detail of the blossoms is made even more dramatic by the use of a complimentary background bokeh.
Well done... Bob

Thanks Bob, awesome comment. But at least I got one shot (and a nice cup of tea with bun) I often return home disgruntled with not one decent shot but today ... yay !

An interesting and creative photograph to show all the extraordinary flowers in a garden. The shot is unusual
and extremely colorful. The focus, colors and textures are apparent.

Very enjoyable to view. I love how bright and cheerful the whole scene is. The bokeh background is great and almost gives the feeling of a spring shower to produce more beautiful flowers. The only thing I might suggest is a very small perspective adjustment if you have a program that does that. I get a feeling of the top tipping toward me. But love it overall. Great entry and slightly out of the box, which to me is always refreshing:)

Thank you CREZ. I'll pass your suggestion to whoever it was that cut the hole in the plank. Maybe it was intentionally 'rustic' or maybe he was just a numpty (I'm opting for number two). This was right next to the tea shop ... couldn't ask for more :-)
-
Sorry Len, I guess you didn't understand what I was suggesting. Very slight post processing on your photo. Nothing to do with the scene itself. None the less a beautiful picture:)
-
No,no I knew exactly what you meant. I already tilted the perspective ... I was just trying to pass the blame on to the man with the saw
