Point of interest, initial impact, creativity of presentation, artist notes, DOF, and lighting all good. I have never seen a purple one before, what a great color for it. Thanks for sharing.

This is a very nice photo. I am giving you 4 stars for the super write up on Christmas. I didn't know 50% of what you did write about, great job!

AV you have done it again. Great execution, technically perfect, love the subtle colors. Your DOF and focus are also spot on. Very well done.

I love the color purple and I myself have silk purple poinsettia with silver glittering and love them. I decorate one room in this color. This is a nice close up and great detail, I don't know what the brown is in the background, I would have preferred a different view and probably a different color frame. Still a nice photo. Sherry

Comment from Intrepid


This is indeed an unusual color for a poinsettia plant. The shot looks very artistic looking. The picture of the plant is well composed. The lighting is very good.

Comment from Georgehey


i really like the texture and color in this one. There is soooo much detail on those leaves. The aged contours of the big leaves and the deep ridges of the smaller ones. Very nice

This is beautiful the way you took it. I like the close up and the detail you see. The coloring is neat. I like the way the light shines on it. An excellent and beautiful picture.

Interesting. Here in the US purple is our Easter color. Red is the one for Christmas. Very interesting shot with good clarity, color and composition
