This is an unusual flower but a very pretty one! I really like this. The colors here just reach out and grab you. The green background makes it pop! Very nice photograph!

I do not believe I have seen one of these buds before! Where in the world did you take it? Your fine image benefits from having an excellent full and central composition with good exposure and sharpness. Nicely taken!

This is a wonderful shot of the 'false bird of paradise' !:) You have framed it well. Light and sharpness are very effective in creating a lovely capture. Thanks for sharing!

A stunning Macro shot of the Heliconia. I love your beautiful diagonal placement in your frame. Beautiful harmony of colors and artistic composition. Very well photographed with beautiful natural light, sharp focus of the bud with wonderful details and clarity in your image. Your lovely background and field of bokeh compliments your work beautifully. Outstanding work and thanks for sharing.

This is such an interesting plant, I don't believe I have seen one before or heard of it. I love the deep red tones at the sharp tips don't the way it gradually turns orange further down toward the stem, with just a hint of green closest to the stem, I like the placement in the frame with the stem in lower right frame and the tip of the plant reaching diagonally to top left frame.this is of course, well focused, the image is clear, exposure is well managed, the colors and tones are natural. This is well composed against the muted green toned background, well presented!

Comment from cleo85
You have the plant perfectly focused. The detail's are crisp. Yes, this flower bud looks powerful. The needle point top gives the illusion of danger. It looks indeed like the head and beak of a bird. It also has a great similarity with the buds of the Bird of Paradise just before they open. The colors are realistic. The beautiful vivid shades of orange are perfectly emphasized by the shallow green background. The tight framing is adequate, The diagonal placement of the bud is eye pleasing. The composition is well balanced.
