SO gay a flower bereaved the mind
As if it were a woe,
Is Beauty an affliction, then?
Tradition ought to know.

-Emily Dickinson

the colors are weird, but they came out of the camera that way (accentuated by curves). The flower really did have green in its petals.

Very pretty. The colours are weird, but I like them, somehow. :)

composed very well. Colors play so nicely. Really surprised this didn't score better. Love the DOF.

Marvelous color combination. Love the fence, and really appreciate NOT having the whole flower in there.

Great colors and good use of DOF. ROT is put to good use, it seems funny to see the green in the purple pedals.
