Comment from mamamary
This is stunning. I don't give flowers a six very often, but this one is so unique. The detail on the flower and two leaves is clear and crisp. The background blur helps the flower pop. The lighting is good. The yellow is not blown out. Great job.

Amazing review and rating. Thanks, mamamary for inspiring me.

This is a gorgeous composition. The color and the delicate shape of the bloom is marvelous. The subtle muted green background is perfect and the darker leaves add balance. Next to perfection.

Initial Impression:
Great DOF to achieve an illusion of weightlessness in this flower.
Technical Elements:
TACK SHARP FOCUS w/nice DOF to retain clear definition through out the subject while allowing a soft / environmentally realistic background of natural color.
Artistic Elements:
Your frame and presentation is very effective and allows this flower to shoot up from no where to hover / float. A very effective and artistically managed shot that is interesting to look at and take in. The little fibers or hairs are so intriguing. Well done. I have no recommendations or suggestions here.

This is a great image of this always photogenic flower. I wish I had a higher rating available. It is clear, well positioned and with the muted background stands out perfectly. Good luck in the competition.

Comment from Joelgraphuchin
I enjoy this picture and also enjoyed the fruits ( if my knowledge is right. this reminds me my childhood. My family had kind of fruit which bloom resembled this picture. I loved the fruit. It could be eaten as it was, or mixed with water and a bit sugar. Hmm...but it might be not because the leaves confuse me). Anyway, this photograph is cute. Love its colour combination: green and pink. The background fits to help this bloom outstanding. Well done.

A clear, crisp and detailed image of this flower. The angle you have taken does it real justice. The two leaves work very well. The green background does not distract from the flower head, well balanced and framed

Comment from OLIVER23
Ok, maracuya is a hybrid created in Brazil and didnīt exist until the early seventies I am told. So what kind of passion fruit flower is this and do they all have curly blooms like this one? Most fascinating image! The flanking green works perfectly to do the tah-dah presentation of the beauty seen here. Congratulations, clear, bright and charming!
