[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
As I have already stated I do like taking photographs of these beautiful flowers. Taken in July I have since done some PP in order to enhance the colour. I hope you like this image.

So many flower shots on the this website but this one caught my eye. I love the colors and the dark background, but what makes this even more different is the POV and the angle at which you took the shot. Great photo, and TFS!

hello Mike!

Great shot. Very good pp work makes your idea really work!

well done

A super-lily, I think. A magenta vortex. I think that flower could transport you to another dimension. A flower that seems to contain worlds of light and darkness spinning within it. Beautiful and mysterious. Thanks for sharing, Mike. Best, Hugh

Hello Mike! Lovely colours in your composition! Good macro and perspective! Strange effect! Seems 3D...Well done!

Really nice pov. Sharpness is great but I would have liked a little more dof for the edges to be evenly sharp.
Great macro, Mike!
All the best / Eric

Excellent effort... maybe f11 to get more depth of field. Still great colors!

Very neat vivid colors. Looks like a painting. good comp.

Hi Mike,
Your work could be better called "eye of the flower" :)) You have wonderful works, but this one has something special I think. Thanks for enlarging my perspective.

Nice design...Look paint..Congratulations!!!

The lily can look seductive in it's shape and you have captured that 'look' here with this POV. People sometimes refer to sexual images seen in other things. For some reason I 'thought' of other things when I saw this image on your intro page.
The color is deep and rich, the image looks just slightly over sharpened, it could be just the tight crop I'm not sure. It is a very pretty flower and your composition is done well.
