This is a beautiful creation! The sharp clarity of the flowers is lovely and the colors look so attractive. The flowing and soft texture of the background with the deep hues of colors is perfect for the flowers. You did a great job making the image look natural too. Like you shot in a studio :)

Wow! Photography and post-processing at it's best. Your Mums are very well photographed in good lighting, sharp focus, and excellent details and clarity in your image. Also love the buds and the green contrast they add to your scene. Your post-processing is done with finesse and thought. A creative and talented Mixed Media work. Outstanding work and thanks for sharing! Love this!

I figured I only had time for one review, so quickly perused photography, and instead of stopping at some bug or bird as I usually do, I stopped at these flowers! I love the colors and composition -- a perfect masterpiece! My admiration! Daphne Oberon

All your hard work has really paid off with this beautiful final image. Your fine, full and central composition gives us a great look at your lovely blooms. Exposure and sharpness are good. Well done!

Wonderful initial impression: this is a beautiful artistic rendering of the six mums in the pink tones. With the deeper tones in the center laying back onto the paler pink , I like that you have also included four buds in this view, allowing us a view of the different stages of life, you have arranged these mums in such a lovely way and your beautiful matching background really works well to hold the viewers eye on the flowers as well as beautifully complimenting your arrangement. This is of course, well focused, the image is clear, exposure is well managed, the colors and tones are natural. This is well presented and was truly a pleasure to view!
