Absolutely, brilliant work here Annie....I am blown away by the creative, and extremely well executed technique you have priveleged us by sharing. The stunning sharpness, vividness of color, spot on lighting and composition are way over the top. You should be very proud of this effort.....exceptionally well done!

My congratulations go out to you on your first place win.

Your flowers are absolutely stunning. The color purple amongst the white is radiant and visually stimulating .... delicate yet dramatic. They are artfully arranged and quite attention getting. You have this natural gift not only when it comes to photographing flowers, but the overall display (if you will) with the layering and with this particular one, the fractal in the back ground, and all the fine tuned little touches here and there that bring it all together in a very elegant, dreamy type of way. It is definitely captivating. Thanks so much for sharing. And Again congrats on the win.

You managed to get the ribbon for the "flower" photography side and I managed to get it from the "flower" Artistic side (Smile).

This is simply Stunning.
The total colors of Purple and White are beautiful.
I like the 3D like look, the soft painterly reflective background .
Fine capture with creative artistic use of filters.
Well done!
Good luck ;)

Columbine never looked so lovely! You must have a knack for arranging living flowers because this is just too artfully arranged for an amateur. The colors, shadows, and tones are all very inviting.

Very very nice work. Congrats on your skill and imagination. Colors are beautiful and the added fractals are incredible. Beautiful. The photograph you started with is very pretty and tack sharp throughout the entire image of the flowers. Best of luck in the competition.

the sophisticated background is already a signature of the author and this is one of the most outstanding pics;
the composition, lighting and focus make it an obvious winner of the contest; such quality pics are more than welcome; lol;
