A beautiful presentation of these lovely flowers. I initially thought I was viewing a painting!
The faded background makes the subject bold, as does the contrast between the dark leaves and white flowers. Triangulation is excellent to keep the eye on your subject! Thank you for sharing!

A very nice nature shot posted here! Your full and slightly off- centre composition offers us an enjoyable look at your beautiful blooms. Like the detail in the leaves. Exposure and sharpness are good. Well taken!

Pure white indeed, but showing beautiful shades at the blossoms and also at the green leaves. I appreciate that there are nowhere blown out areas. The colors look natural-realistic. The piece is well lightened and the highlights are well set. The exchanged background is pleasant. The composition is well balanced and adequately framed.

This is so beautiful, Annie. I am in awe of your artistic talent with all of your flower shots. I want to learn how to do what you do. You obviously started with a gorgeous shot of the jasmine. Perfect white balance and light management. Then...you used your magic and created a lovely piece of art. So, So lovely. :)

What a lovely image Annie. I always like the way you take what would be an ordinary photo and turn it into a work of photographic art.

This could pass for a very well done painting. The background is especially subtle giving the entire image a serene look and feel.

The artistic hint of the added leaves gives an almost mystical sense of existence.

Thank you so much for posting another of your "Special Annie" works of photographic art ~ Steve

"From plants that wake when others sleep, from timid jasmine buds that keep their odour to themselves all day, but when the sunlight dies away let the delicious secret out to every breeze that roams about."

~ Thomas Moore

Simply Stunning! I love the purity of the white and the superb white balance Control on each bloom and bud.
Your focus is razor sharp and your Annie artistic magic is working superbly here.
Beautiful work Cara!
Sokkene Av!!! ;)

Always awesome in your presentations.. yeah I'm supposed to be blind but your talent stands out with that AV quality. The clarity is excellent. The angle of the shot of these flowers is excellent. Love the background. The Capture of the light is excellent. The image is well balanced and very eye appealing to the viewer. Creative and awesome work overall (clapping)

Just so lovely, Annie. I do not think anyone could present these delicate blooms any better. Truly the perfect and most naturally artistic arrangement has been chosen and the faded out background is at the perfect level. There is such elegance in just white and green. One of your best and will be a favorites of mine. Ed.
