Red Hibiscus

Comment from ElliR


This mixed media photograph of a red hibiscus is a work of art. The darkening of the background adds a dramatic and moody effect that highlights the bold beauty of the red hibiscus. The added red light effect adds an extra layer of depth and dimension to the image, drawing the eye to the intricate details of the flower. The drop shadows provide a sense of volume and dimension, making the hibiscus seem to almost pop off the page. The use of the Topaz Lens Effects adds an extra layer of interest and creativity to the image, and overall the piece is beautifully crafted and expertly edited. This is a masterpiece of mixed media photography that showcases the artist's exceptional talent.

Comment from Glena Jessee-King


Reds and greens are our Christmas coIors and are mostly always nice together. You really deserve a "6"; I love this flower with the vivid reds and the greenery adorning its sides as leaves and types of decorations. You have done the background beautifully too, with that red reflection, in particular. Best wishes. (Excuse my ignorance, but are the three-leaf-green rather pretty leaves on the right poison ivy? Thanks for responding.)

    Welcome, artist friend. Lovely setting indeed.
Comment from Jewell McChesney


This gorgeous Hibiscus is one of the most inviting images of its kind I have seen. It is one of my favorite flowers and I have a few in my yard come summer.
The green is so complimentary against the burgundy background which appears to have another flower of its kind muted out and done quite cleverly.
Every effect you have used here is well done. It's beautiful! The water drops are a nice touch as well.
Good luck in the contest.

This is a fine combination of red and green colors. They surely complement each other. The red Hibiscus is beautiful. The red added to brighten the background worked so well. All the best in the contest. Ray

Love the way this flower is laid out! You really show off the texture in the petals and I love the 3 droplets of water. On the black background this hibiscus really lights off. POV is perfect too! Your lighting and focus is right on target! :o) Nancy

Red and Green are Classic Contrasting Colors and your nicely-presented picture shows us how attractive that combination actually is!

This is GORGEOUS! It definitely looks like the winner to me! The bright red hibiscus bloom is stunning and looks perfect with the additional greenery. A very crisp, well balanced image; as usual, your enhancements have taken this image up a notch, very best to you in the contest!
