Yes, I do, Tom,

the detail inside the flower is perfect, the colour contrast very nice, maybe there is a bit much space at the top of the photo, but I wouldn't cut the blurred big leaf in the background in half... It can't be helped...
Still a very nice macro...
Well done!
Frank

P.S.: Tom, what camera did you use, what lens, what f-stop, what exposure, tripod yes or no...? Please add this info on a regular basis, it's so interesting and valuable!

Hi Thomas,
Another great flower composition! The placement of the centre of the flower is perfect, good DOF since it also enhances the petals... dynamic lines. I can understand Frank's objection thought, did you try to crop just above the top of the upper petal? Anyway it is a good capture
Regards,
Pablo

Hi Thomas,

This is yet another beautiful flower of yours. I like how you captured the petals. The background is a little distracting, especially the leaf in the upper right corner, but it is a very nice picture nevertheless.

Hello Tom,
It's a beautiful macro and the details are so sharp and clear! I have to add my voice though to the previous critiquers about the upper photo, yes, I agree that it is a little bit distracting. But, great work nevertheless!

WELL DONE,

Shelly.

Yes Tom, I do like it. Stunning blue flower and the cropping is good too. The centre stamens are nice and sharp too. Well shown, I do love your flower shots.
