Red Ixora

Comment from DeansterZ
Excellent colors and well position within the frame. The brightly lit bloom contrasts nicely against the darker green background. On the down side, very little of the bloom is in focus. There is one spot in the center of the right bloom that is in focus but it is mostly blocked by the array of red stems. More DOF would resolve this issue. Experiment with f/stop and you should find a good solution. With close ups of blooms, there is almost always portions not in full focus. The peculiar shape and arrangement of this particular one makes that more of a challenge.

What an interesting flower which looks like a firework explosion. Contrasting red against the green foliage is good and the composition is very nice. Detail of the flower is shown with good focus.

This is an intriguing close up. I like the softness of exposure which still allows refinement of detail. The Ixora looks like firework exploding in a green sky. Your photo is well focused and exposed and has good depth. I appreciate the realism of color. The Ixora is well placed within the frame. The composition is balanced.
