Very engaging frame of a triple blossom plant.

The DOF is certainly deep. all the petals are very sharp and distinctly seen.

The color and tonal range flows evenly through the flowers.

The background has a good bokeh that gives texture and impact to this piece .. B-)) Bob

Comment from GaliaG
lovely capture of the flower, but the background is too bright and too busy, so it distracts

good position of the flower in the frame

thanks for sharing

Comment from Dick Lee Shia
Impressive capture!
An interesting initial impact.

Subtle color & illumination.
Fine features & velvety textures.
Tall format works well here.

Nice perspective & narrow DOF.
Sharply focused.

Thanks for sharing...

Your framing is perfect and setting beautifully captured with a good perspective and excellent camera techniques. It's your spot on focus so sharp drawing us into this gorgeous scene with a wide aperture blurring distractions from your background. Wonderful are your colors many shades of pink and the wonderful shades of green as your background. I can't stop starring at the beauty captured in this photography. This is outstanding work and thanks for sharing! Worthy of a six star!

Comment from AndreThreeThou
This is a very natural image without any real need to add many effects to it, and the three flowers together do a great job with adding symmetry to the image. It's amazing how even in nature we can find naturally occurring design elements.

Comment from Kbanich
Very pretty Eileen - you've captured this with a feeling of softness and the fragile petals stand out nicely from the natural backdrop. I find your position keen in the shot as not only are we allowed to see a head on view of the center flower, but the leaves are also nice leading lines. Very pretty. Kathy
