Love the bold color in this image. In the thumbnail it looks like sand blowing in the wind in a group of sand dunes!

Nice lighting. The color saturation has a sunny effect.

Wow, I'm amazed at how much it really DOES look like a sunset! I thought so even before I saw the title :-) Very well done.

7 - Like this, including the concept. Just needs 'something' to lift it, in my opinion. Perhaps a little more depth or variation in framing &/or cropping, not sure. Colors are nice, although the darker area at the fore/bottom, perhaps needs the most 'lift' - just like to see more clarity in that 'bud', although I realize that might counteract the abstractness, so not sure.

Lovely tones and color. Pattern and texture add nicely. Very beautiuful abstract!

This is a lovely shot. I am sure you intended this, but the background looks like a landscape with successive layers further and further away. Sort of like mountains at sunset. Beautifully composed. Beautifully thought out. Beautifully executed. 10

neat backround

At first glance, it looks like one of those landscape pictures of the Great Smokey Mountains.

Great idea and love the colours. However my only suggestion is that the green "bud" would look better pointing into the picture not away i.e. it leads my eye out of the photo not into it.

That is fantastic! That truly does look like a sunset.

Those petals look like hills. Nice job.

First glance: A flower.

Nice use of the flower as a background, it works really well. Not the strongest subject to put in front of it, but overall very good.

I like the way the background fades to the yellow colour gradually, and generally the warmth of this image. nicely captured!
