Hello Janice,

I'm amazed that this fine shot has received so little attention! The diagonal composition, the attractive colours and the effective use of narrow dof really make it stand out.
It has a kind of etherial quality which would make this an eye-catcher in any horticultural magazine!

Have a good day,
Bev :-)

I have always wondered what these were called.
Nice DOF making the colour really POP out of the screen.

hi Janice,
most beautiful - sappy colours, till one wants to stretch out outside the monitor and to touch Harlequin Flower. Wonderful colours, the excellent sharpness.
best regards

Janice - delightful photo with its vibrant color.
Really like the DOF and BG on this as it adds to the shot.
Your choice of frame works well .
personally I can not see anything that you could do to improve on this.

Hi Janice,
Yes this is!
I see Harlequin gave his name at many things, here we have Harlequin ducks which almost similar Comedia del Arte colors of your splendid flowers!!
Very bright red and yellow against the soft blurred background!
Really a beautiful and alive picture! Annie

Hi Janice,
The reds against the lush green is perfectly captured and exposed. The shallow DOF (f/5.0) creates a fine focus on the beauty of the red flower with the bright yellow core.. The black frame enhances the image. Great one my dear!
