Welcome!

This is a lovely look at the center of this Lily! The center is perfectly sharp and your shallow depth of field creates a wonderful effect on the petals. Your composition is great and the colors are wonderful.

An absolutely exquisite shot of the centre of this beautiful and vibrant Lily, taken with great clarity and showing incredible detail and colour on the stamen and petals. The effects you have used have worked really well in creating a great fading effect away from the main subject which accentuates the centre - overall a really well composed piece, great work and best of luck! :)

This mixed media creation looks gorgeous and surreal. The coloring seems unusual. I guess the green pollen are archived with your mixed media effects. I have never seen green pollen before, but why not? Anything we imagine is possible in the lands of fantasy. I like how crisp the center is captured and the petals fade into the vignette. This emphasizes the dreamy-surreal impression.

Thanks a lot for the lovely review Cleo, and the colors in this photo are all real. In the purple version of this lily the stamens actually have a lovely blue/green color.

A beautiful picture. I love the soft blur of the edges and how it blends so nicely with the surrounding background. The blues and browns of the center make a nice contrast, but not too strong of one.
