Your angle of shot was perfect to showcase the beautiful tiger lily , I love the way you emphasize those spots and it's downward facing placement allows a good look at the lily stamens.
Very well focused, this image is sharp and clear, exposure is correct, colors and tones appear natural. Well composed and presented! I like that it's such a creative mage of the lily .
Best wishes to you in this contest!

Wow! The colors are so vibrant, crisp and eye catching. Love the angle/perspective. Love the blurred background. May I ask what kind of camera and settings you used? Just curious. Love it!

This flower is interesting and beautiful . I would give it more space in the frame and/ or take a photo of a single one against any plain surface. The focus is great but the background it's still competing with your main subject .

The Tiger Lily blossom is perhaps among the more difficult to get a full focus shot. This one truly raises the bar.

The color of the blossom is natural in appearance.

The camera settings are spot on perfect as is the positioning within the frame.

The lighting and subsequent contrast enhance and strengthen the overall viewability of the image.

Well done Tiger Lily rtake ... Bob

    Your very welcome. I once had a home where we had planted a large crescent shape flower bed of Tiger Lilies. We got all the plants by driving the back roads with a shovel and a couple of buckets. They grew everywhere all we had to do was make sure we were not taking someone's flowers.

    Then they disappeared. I haven't seen a wild Tiger Lily in over 15 years. A shame.

This is interesting and very focused. Sharp detail and great vibrant colors. Your technique is interesting with the enhancements. This is a nice contest entry for the Flower contest. Best of luck.

Very nice details of this beautiful spotted tiger lily! I like your cropping that shows us wonderful details of the long curling stamens and the backlit flower in the background provides a nice contrast. Lovely post editing work. Best wishes for the contest!

A good looking image posted here into the competition! Your fine and classical, macro composition offers us an enjoyable view of your beautiful bloom. Colours, textures and tones are good. Exposure and sharpness are fine. Well done and good luck!
