A great image of this lovely and delicate cactus flower, nice exposure with pin sharp focus , the light really picks up the soft texture in the flower, natural colours and well framed. Good luck in the contest.

The different shapes of the flower pedals add to the interest in the flower. depth if field is good as well as the lighting.

Very good entry for the contest. Lovely capture of the infrequently flowering cactus plant. I like how you placed it in the frame. The dark background shows it off perfectly. Very good lighting and focus. Good luck in the contest. Suzanne

Excellent capture of shape and form. The lighting is sharp highlighting the delicate details of the flower petals and stem. Nice that you chose the dark back ground to allow the flower to pop. Very good cropping and editing. This is lovely to look at and very well framed. Thank you for sharing.

Very nice sharp and well focused photo of a Christmas cactus flower. Well lit,bringing out all the subtle shadings and textures of this intricate blossom.I have several plants with various colors of flowers,they usually bloom around Halloween,then again in early spring.I think the white ones are particularly beautiful with their delicate pink shading.You have a beautiful photo here- thanks for sharing!

Nice picture. Like the contrast with the black background. Good composition, contrast, and focus. Looks like it might have been tuned up a bit in the editing process.

What a gorgeous capture of this cactus in this profile view of the flower and leaf. A beautiful color that stands out brilliantly against the darker background. The detail is so clear and crisp in the petals and can be seen very well in the lighter color of the flower.
A real pleasure to view this lovely shot.
