Monet's garden must be very inspirational considering this beautiful photograph. The colors are very nice and angle in which you took the photo is very pleasing. I like the empty dark spot on the left. As you scan across the poppies from right to left, the open area on the left draws your eye back over to the right and starts it's way back again. A beautiful array of shades and color.

Fred,
A beautiful picture of these sunlit Red Opium Poppies. Buds & seed pods contrasting with the dark background from which they pop.
Artistic composition framing and lighting taken with superb camera techniques and sharp focus.

I like this low angled perspective that makes the poppies seem so tall and lanky. The one turned toward the camera is fantastic. Great colors and excellent composition .

Poppy is also a flower!:) This is a wonderful shot of nature. You have framed it well. The light and shadows, colours and the composition have worked out well. Thanks for sharing!

A lovely view of the opium poppies, I like that you captured the flowers and buds which add so much more interest. The flowers really pop against the shadow in the back ground, good natural framing. A pleasure to view. Love poppies.

Lovely shot of the poppies in summer bloom. I like the vertical format, it gives them more height. Good focus and clarity in the shot with a lot of details. Good color. Nice composition. Well done.composition.

Comment from Charlie Newman


The composition and color contrast in this photo clearly demonstrates you have a good eye. The detail and clarity also is excellent. From my eyes, I might have cropped out the part of the petal in the lower right. It's a minor distraction.

I like how you've shown these lovely Poppies in different stages of development in Monet's garden with the sun lighting up their petals. The dark background shows them off very well. Very good lighting and focus. Lovely composition. Suzanne

No wonder he was such a creative painter! Your fine and traditional composition offers us an enjoyable view of those colourful blooms. Like those long stems! Exposure and sharpness are good. Nicely done!
