[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I captured an image of this delicate pink and white Hibiscus flower in the tropical section of the Franklin Park Conservatory in Columbus, Ohio. The Hibiscus can be found in many parts of the world and has numerous morphs in color and shape. It is also known for its medicinal properties.

Hello Thomas,
The hibiscus looks delicate in this exquisite composition. The water drops certainly add 'oomph' to the viewing pleasure. The greens surrounding the flowers are soothing and effectively enhances the image. Best regards, Danilo

i like the freshness here, Thomas, thanks to the water drops. the texture on the petals are nice too, but i'd prefer a better POV to give a better view of the stamens. it could be nicer if the yellow stamens are captured against the green surrounding, that would be very striking. just MHO

TFS
regards
Agoes

Beautiful flower and very good detail, especially in its center. I like the water droplets the the natural framing with the leaves is lovely.
