Pink Dahlias

These flowers have a lovely array of pink tones that your lighting has brought out so nicely. You also did such a good job of pasting the flower back into the image without ragged edges. The background blur is very attractive.

    Hi Envision, When ever I have to cut out an image I enlarge it so I can get nice clean cuts. The magic wand always leaves a ragged edge so I like to do the cutting myself. Thanks for the lovely review. I'm glad you enjoyed my Mixed Media Dahlias.

I like what you've done with this lovely close up of the beautiful pink Dahlias. The softened background works really well to show them off well. Excellent lighting and focus showing a lovely crisp image. Lovely composition. Good luck in the contest. Suzanne

A gorgeous composition with beautiful colors. The blurring of the background makes the flowers seem all the sharper. Best of luck in the contest.

    Hi Mike, This was the part of the image that knocked my socks off! I wanted to separate it form the rest of the mage. It means a LOT knowing you felt I really brought the image out to be thoroughly enjoyed. Thank you for the super review! :o) Helvi

Ohhhh! Yes, the are gorgeous. I love all those shades of pink. The flowers and leaves are sharp captured. The soft, blurred background emphasizes them beautifully The arrangement of the flowers in a diagonal is eye pleasing. The creation appears to be well balanced and framed.

You are so right! These are just gorgeous! The colors and the lighting are stunning. So much detail and focus on the petals and foliage. I like the blurred soft background as well ... it really makes the flower bouquet jump out!
