A wonderful flower photo! I appreciate the extreme sharpness that makes this flower look like it is floating, nice touch with the filtered background. Pretty colors. Nicely composed and presented!

You know how I love a hibiscus pic. Steve, and this is a true beauty. Excellent detail and color bring out every nuance. Perfect angle to showcase the stamen and perfect work on the background too with just the right amount of greens. Best of luck in the contest. Ed.

The Hibiscus is gorgeous. The colors of the petals are superb. Your photo has good depth, is excellent focused, exposed and treated with mixed media. The mixed media treatment is sufficient. I enjoy the realism of color and light and the refinement of texture and colors. The framing is perfect. The blossom is expertly placed within the frame. The composition is balanced.

Comment from avmurray
It is a lovely Hibiscus flower you have pictured here, and it also looks very delicate with the different shades of pink. I also like the background with the green leaves and a touch of blue, and the flower is standing out from it in an excellent way.
The photo is nice and sharp showing clear and well defined details both in the petals, the stamens and the pistils, and the exposure is perfect.
The format and framing is working well, and the flower has got a fine placement within the frame. I think this is a truly lovely and well taken photo Steve, and with an excellent DOF. I wish you luck with the contest.

Comment from Jo Calderbank
a wonderful capture of this beautiful hibiscus, the veins on the petals stand out clearly and give soft texture
on the petals, great lighting, focus, and clarity. the flower
stands out perfectly against the subdued background,
deep saturated but natural colours. a beauty. good luck in the contest.

Wow, the background looks like a mystery. Very fun colors. The pink on this flower changes. I think that's pretty cool, especially the darker pink in the middle. Well done. Laprap

Comment from Malmax
Oh you've shown outstanding detail in the veining of these delicate petals. Lovely softness
And such a charming center.
The background created is just right for the tropical feel with a nice balance in color. Yes it takes a real man to proudly display pink...and you wear it so well my FS. So proud of you....
