Very cool av. Awesome job on setup. The clarity is great. The angle of the shot of the colorful flowers is great. Love the line up. The capture of the light is great. The image is balanced and eye appealing to the viewer. An absolute winner and very awesome work overall. (Standing clapping and cheering)

Well deserved winner. The lighting is superb and the rule of three is always a winner,excellent detail and the dark background really emphasises the tulips to their best advantage, the colors are lovely as well.

Comment from Joelgraphuchin
An enjoyable photograph of flowers. Dark background is helpful to clearly present the three tulips. The flowers are sharp and the different color of them makes this composition more interesting to see. Well done.

as I usually say, no really a fan of centered artwork (but I know this is for that specific topic)...but these look really good....I like the composition, even if centered, not really symmetric....and how the tulips part in 2 the background (dark on left, with leaves on right)....and the best thing is the sharpness and clarity of the flowers (although the tulip from the back looks a bit strange to me)....good luck with the contest :)
