Comment from Anton Rosner
Beautiful picture of flower. Well exposed and sharp all round. I like what you did with the background I guess that were lens effect comes in. Well done.

Comment from Daphne Oberon
Very lovely composition of a splendid, vibrant pink bloom! The corrugated petals seem to swirl to the center around the stamen in a whirlpool of shiny, intensifying color. My admiration! Daphne Oberon

I love what you've done with this, Annie, showing the beautiful pink Hibiscus framed by the black background with the feathery white tendrils peeping through. Very good lighting and focus. The petals look like crepe paper. Excellent composition. Suzanne

This is beautiful. I like the way you have captured all the details in the flower, even the drops of water are clearly distinguishable. The added effects add drama to the image and everything stand out beautifully against a dark background. Excellent work.

A very nice nature shot presented here! Your full and slightly off-centre composition allows us a very enjoyable view of your lovely bloom. Exposure and sharpness are good. Your additional edits have worked very well. Well done!

Annie,
A wonderful picture of this deep pink Hibiscus beautifully framed by it's green foliage & the feathery like grey leaves in the background both the leaves & the freathery leaves glowing out from the dark background. Beautiful composition framing and lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.

Comment from Trajan
A nicely captured flower with your characteristic treatment post shoot. Nice detail and a solid composition.
I do like the bit of dew drops as well as the orange on the pistil.
Well done.
