This is a wonderful shot of the African Daisy!. You have framed it well. Light and sharpness are very effective in creating a lovely capture. Thanks for sharing!

Beautiful! Wonderful detail and colors. I like how you cropped the picture and darkened the background but leaving a hint of detail. Well Done! Thank you for sharing! :) Jill

Comment from Dick Lee Shia


Pale but femme fatale aura!
She looks more than cyanotic with no blood circulating anymore...;-))

Exquisite image.
Impeccable prese tatio .
Enhancing saturation a bit would bring out more details & richer colors.

Perfect dark backdrop!

Nice perspective & narrow DOF.

Thanks for sharing...

Very good angle of view. Good initial impact and presentation.
Nice details and textures.
Good soft even lighting. The dark background makes the colors of the flower "pop".

This is such a beautiful flower, never seen one, with the dark background, brings out the details in the white flower, and the textures of the purple center too, very good camera skills used, a pleasure to look at, thank you for sharing, dale

Wonderful flower photo. Nature really knows how to show up. I love the white tipped with purple and the blue middle is really cool. Blues show up rarely in flowers.. I think

Comment from Susan F. M. T.


Pat,
A beautiful picture of this mauve tipped white petalled Osteospermum with a blue centre glowing out from it's dark background. Artistic composition framing and lighting taken with superb camera techniques and sharp focus.
I love these flowers that remind me of the time I spent in Zimbabwe/Southern Rhodesia as it then was when I was just a child.
Susan

Comment from ArtistCharles


Good clear shot of this special daisy. I love the almost surreal color these flowers have. They are so unusual. Good focus to show off the blossom. Nice lighting. Good background. Well seen.

Yes, this is such a lovely daisy, Pat. You have presented it superbly with excellent detail and white balance showing off every nuance of its delicate coloring and attractive center. Nice slightly off center framing too. Well done.
