This is a lovely creation. More than just a photograph it is a visual treat and work of art. The beginning photo of the hibiscus was well done and provided a lovely base for the shot. The various treatment add to the depth and overall composition. Well done" Thank you for sharing.

Comment from Linda Engel
A beautiful presentation I like the how the red flower fads into white flower then red coloring again. Beautiful light coming from behind shining through. Wonderful lighting and great focus. Very nice details. Very pretty, Anna.

I love how creative you are with these images, Annie. Your initial image of the flower had to be well done for you to end up with a results this nice. Great decisions on all of your layers creating a piece of art that is a pleasure to view.

A beautiful blossom with excellent texture in the petals and great color. The background is artfully created and has the great benefit of staying in the back.

Comment from blujdrawings
Very striking colours here which just illuminate beautifully. The background works well as it is soft and helps make the colours of the compostion really pop. Good job

Comment from Dick Lee Shia
Impressive mixed media rendition.
Dynamic creation...

Excellent minimal colors & but more textures.

Interesting modification but as you stare longer, the backdrop seems to grab more attention than the main red gumamela, (as we call it here...;-)

Subdued lighting & impressive framing.

Thanks for sharing!

Comment from willie
What a beauty! I sure wish you lived close to me so that I could come over and see how you do things like this! I simple love the way this looks. Yes the flowers are pretty but it is how it all fades into the background! Very nice work!
