Is this just a single bulb that puts forth so many blossoms? The flowers are beautiful and they look great against that leafy background. Nicely composed with fantastic colors.

These flowers have such striking colors and great shaped petals. I like how they grow in clusters. Great exposure of the colors. Your angle shows off the shapes nicely too.

These red Amaryllis blooms looks truly great and you have pictured them so well. The greens in the background are perfect to emphasize the red, and the flowers are standing out from it in an excellent way. I also think the light is falling on them in a lovely way.

Your photo is nice and sharp showing such clear ad well defined details in all the flowers, and the exposure is spot on. I also appreciate the crisp and clear colors.

The photo is nicely cropped and the flowers have got a fine placement within the frame. A truly lovely and well taken flower photo Fred, and with an excellent DOF. I wish you luck with the contest.

Gorgeous flowers. I don't know too much about flowers. Would these survive in an east coast climate? I'd like to get some. As always, thanks for sharing and awesome picture!

I've never seen a red and white Amaryllis like that before, they are very pretty. Your color is well-managed and looks natural. Your focus is clear. Your composition is OK, vet here are two things that would make it better. Give a little bit more room at the top of your photo would be one. The other would be to use a more shallow depth of field so that the background is more blurred it would make your flowers pop out. But it's a very nice photo and the flowers are beautiful

This is a beautiful photo of these flowers and a great entry for the contest! The colors are so vibrant and beautiful. The sharpness of the flowers is excellent the greenery behind them is out of focus enough to make a great background.

Oh wow! The amaryllis is such a gorgeous flower and I love that you are showing several blooms, I have not seen these in the red with white detail before and they are stunning! They are very well placed in the frame and I like the greenery as background. They are of course, well focused, the image is clear, exposure is perfect, colors and tones are natural, this is well composed and presented! I would love to have these in my garden! Best wishes to you in the contest!

A beautiful shot of multi headed Amerillas. We have them almost growing wild on our island, are but more straggly than these perfect blooms. Its a very fine example of your work. Great use of light, central focus capturing colours and varigations. Angle holds interest and perfect dull green backgrpund to push forward the main objects to give optimum impact.
