A beautiful picture of the Black Eyed Susan, with one petal curled up while all the others are cured down & the one green leaf glowing under the yellow Gold petal as the stand out in three dimensions from the dark background that matches the flower's centre. Artistic composition, framing & lighting with superb camera techniques with sharp focus.

A simple piece yet it attracts attention. Glad a leaf was included during the shoot coz it
really gives a spice. Soft, appealing, beautiful color and it stand out against the black background. The lighting is great as well as composition. Good luck!

excellent focus, details, colors and lighting

excellent separation of the flower from the background

I think that if the flower was not in the center of the frame this could be even better

thanks for sharing

    I agree, but that wasn't the contest.

This can be better framed in a square format, my friend,
Impressive capture! A great initial impact. Nice interesting subject. Excellent POV & DOF...Harmonious colors. Impressive lighting, focusing & framing.

I agree with the viewpoint of the photographer, adding the leaf gives spice and extra color to a lovely colored flower on dark background. I love this style of photos. You must focus on the center of attention as the photographer wants you too. You are lead by his artistic eye. WELL DONE

Wish I had a six for this. I love how you have framed this and the leaf adds so much interest. Wonderful color and saturation. Good luck in the contest.

Very nice flower photo with that black background to make the black eyed susan pop out at us. Fine photography and edits to bring out the beauty in this photo. Very well done!

You are right one flower is easy to centre and with this large black space works quite well with the bright light and vibrant colours of the flower. I like the stem being left in but not the loan leaf it does not work for me but that's only my opinion.

Good focus and sharp detail and well framed.

Very nice shot. I like that you blacked out the background, to make the yellow flower really pop. And the one leaf to the side adds some additional contrast to the photo. Focus is sharp, nice clarity and nice lighting. Thanks for sharing.
