Hello from the critique club

An appealing image that meets the challenge

Welcome to DPC Patrick and what a commendable start. These lovely flowers are a welcome sign of spring thus fulfilling the challenge brief. I like your shallow DOF that accurately portrays the single flower against the foreground and background of soft focus repetition of blooms, nicely and creatively done. The distant blue contrasts nicely too and the lighting highlights on the flower give it an additional glowing appeal. Thanks for your entry

This was the first in line I love the color pop and the bokeh. If I had taken this shot, I may would have shown a little more of the tulip. Still a nice shot. 8

Strong idea, good execution, composition, lighting, DOF. (Manual) focus on eye would be better, as the towel stands out a little too sharply / too much.

Outstanding portrait. Lighting is fantastic. The towel is a nice touch. Very clever! Having him applying mascara works very well. Model is beautiful and that sure doesn't hurt this photo a bit.
