Hi Barbara, I love poppies ! This is beautiful with the pink toned petals , the seed pod surrounded by the yellow stamens. I like this close up ! Well focused, the image is sharp and clear, exposure is perfect, colors and tones are natural. Well composed filling the frame, well presented!

Hi Pat, thank you so much!

Comment from Charlie Newman
Very well composed and framed Macro shot of the center of the poppy. The focus is sharp showing clear and well defined details throughout the composition. Colors are natural. Lighting is well done.

A very nicely composed shot with sharp focus on the stamens. I like the colors and think the dusting of yellow pollen on the petals is superb.

This is a superb macro, Barbara. You have framed it perfectly with just enough of the pink petals to showcase that gorgeous center. Of course the center is shot with pristine clarity and detail and excellent dimension due to the perfect angle. So very well done! Ed.
