Quite possibly the most stunning flower photo I've seen in this challenge. 10

Very pretty. To me, this pic looks PAINTED - like it should be for this challenge. Best of luck...

painting with light?

Nice soft light and pretty colors. I think I'd take out the unopen bloom at the very bottom, and possibly do a vertical crop instead of square.

Nice lighting on the three foreground flowers. Could have used just a bit more painting on the purple flower, which fades into the background just a tad too much, imo.

nice image, but the flowers seem a bit blurry, i think it adds to the image though...

Very nice. Great color. My only criticism is the two purple flowers in the back. Maybe a little too dark for the photo. Some nice lavender, or red may have been better. Much better than anything I have ever done though, so take it as you may. 9........... Update: After completion of the voting, this is my favorite photo in the competition, by far. My pick for the blue.

Excellent. I am sure you havd many tries. Truly a 'painting'.

IMHO, your flowers could have done with being sharper, as they seem to have moved during the exposure (wind?)
