You have found a beautiful backdrop for this gorgeous Poppy. Your central composition is engaging with spot on sharp focus of the petals and stamen on this beauty. Your lighting is revealing excellent details. Your wide aperture is nicely diffused and the lighting soft, yet bright. This is perfect entry to the Poppy Contest and a good contender. This is very nice work and thanks for sharing and good luck!

This photograph captures the central parts of a poppy. You did a great job of capturing the crepe like texture of the petals as well as the sea urchin like details of the stigma. I like the way you used the fuzzy leaves of the plant as a background.

A beautiful shot..well lit and beautifully composed. I like the detail in the blossoms and the colors are great. You should have waited a few hours to post it and I'm sure it would get sixes. Good luck in the voting.
