Wow, pretty bold red color, nice; whole pic looks like Dec holidays; good contrast of red/green; good focus on the flower itself; looks like the flowers are looking around trying to get attention. Nice. Take care.

Very welcome. Since I know next to nothing about flowers and trees, I use my senses to describe things. I do know words like foliage. I learned a bit when I grew roses. We've got hibiscus, palm trees, cactus, grass and weeds at our house LOL. Take care.

...'and weeds' LOL. Yup...I've got them too swimmer....although I don't often photograph them. I enjoy your reviews....completely! Thank you again.
Comment from Dick Lee Shia
Striking fiery blooms against the hazy vibrant yellow green foliage...
Controlled illumination just to cast soft highlighting & faint shadows!
Nice focusing of its very core featuring a simple reproductive part...
Or is it?
Square format framing suits this image best.
Thanks for sharing...

a very nice close up and perfect framing of these bright red phlox flowers;
sharp focus with excellent control of exposure for the red, without smearing;

Beautiful lighting and central composition is engaging. Your spot on and sharp focus with excellent details on the petals and stamen of this gorgeous phlox. Your framing is perfect and your choice of aperture rendering you a perfect background to compliment your overall photography. This is very nice work and thanks for sharing!

someone must have said something in the background to make that flower to look away..lol. the clarity is great. the angle of the shot of the colorful flowers is great. the capture of the light is great. the image is balanced and eye appealing to the viewer. good eye and great job overall.

Oh yes, we used lots of these when I was a kid especially in our rock garden. Gorgeous red color, Deb, which you have captured with pristine clarity and detail. Love your choice of the bunch with a very nice artistic arrangement. Well done!

I didn't even know what PHLOX were when I first started building my gardens Ed. Once I discovered them though I added them EVERYWHERE. I just love that they never need my attention....EVER! Thank you so much for checking out my new piece....and for the wonderful review you've given it. You're a peach!! lol
