I can understand why this is your favorite spring flower because it is truly pretty and has such an elegant and delicate look. The light is falling on it in such a lovely way and is standing out from the softened background in an excellent way.

Your focus is spot on and sharp showing really clear and well defined details both in the petals and stamens, and the white balance and exposure is perfect.

The cropping is nicely done and the flower has got a very good placement within the frame. Indeed a lovely and well taken flower photo Allan, and I wish you luck with the contest.

    Thanks for this great review and rating. The blossom is only an inch and a half across, such a small flower but such a great shape.
    Thanks for taking the time to review this image once again!!

    I actually though it was small, and this just proves that size doesn't always matter. You are more than welcome for the review Allan.

    We have yellow ones here also. They sure do not last long in spring, one has to be quick each year to get them in full bloom. Thanks much for your kind words on your review.
