I was out at the farm this morning shooting and found these guys standing in the myrtle. I really like the colors. Your comments are always welcome. Thanks for taking a look.

Matthew:
Lovely diagonals sharply focused flower with blurry flowers in the BG. Details are really good on the buds and there is no sign of noise in this image.

Hi Matthew,
I do like the FG bloom; it looks almost painterly And I like the diagonals. I think the BG adds too much confusion to the image.
I certainly see no signs of noise.

I like the diagonal composition you chose. If the BG were a bit more blurred, it would be a better shot overall IMO. Very nice colors.
