WOW, i want that filter!! The picture is well taken as well though. Nice structure and light. Mabye the green is a litle bit to saturated in my opinion, but as sad, that's just an opinion. I think i would have prefred a bit more of centerd postion as well, to balance the composition a bit. Or mabye a square format would wok, just an idea. Nicely done Vincent

Well done Vicent.You learned it fast.I don't know if the choice of the photo was the best but, the result is very good. (I have more flyer photos but i decided keeps them for later) :)

I like this a lot. The black background makes me look at the flowing shape of the bloom, and that fluidity is repeated with the water effect below. This is a striking photograph!

Très bien réussi Vincent...le filtre ajute à la beauté naturelle du kala.Très reposant comme image.

Tres bon , encore une fois, le fond noir renforce le coté délicat de la fleur. une belle lumiere.

Wow!!! An excellent effect and well used by yourself. I will definitely give the filter a try. You have used it very well.

Hmmm, vraiment sympa. Le fond noir est parfait dans cette situation. Bon post-processing également ! Bravo !

The flood filter disease... it's good to find company.

I like the colors very much. Great lighting.

Good lighting, background and use of the flood filter. How did you achieve the black background - any props?
Very creatively done.

I think this picture is very very good.
I don´t give a damn about the rule of thirds, and I think it´s a very constraintfull equation that can be quite contrary to the freedom one should use when thinking of photography in terms of an art form.
I think your image is very well balanced and I like the effect of the filter too.
Even the diference in the border distance from right edge of the flower and the left border helps balancing the relative wheight of the main white body.
Kudos on another job well done.

supebe effet. ou trouver cet filtre sur Photoshop? menu? superbe effet en totu cas.. tu as donné des idées à manny visiblement ou vice versa:-)

Beautiful Vincent, that's all I can say, absolutely beautiful. :-)

Exquisite! I am amused at my reaction to this because I compared it to a glass sculpture (when usually it is the work of art compared to life). Your lighting, your rendering of the filter, your choice of colors are so ... sensuous ...

Well done Vincent, it is magnificent, this picture encourages me to want to do more macros and to do some really nice post processing.
The image is focused, clear and sharp the contrasting white, green and black colours are excellent.
Great shot.

Vincent, you are gifted with the composition of your photos. This is simply outstanding! Nicely done my friend. I would give you 10 points here if I could, Thanks for sharing and God's best to you, Tim

This is one of the most striking images of a flower that I have seen without exception! I wonder if you can detail more how you set this photo up, more detail in how you used your equipment. That would be most helpful to those of us wanting to learn to be more 'artful'

Beautiful ! Beautiful ! Beautiful ! Congratulations !
