Wow...150mm F/2.8 from Sigma handheld.. :cool: . That is some achievement. Good idea to shoot using the subtle foreground blur from other stems. Looks all nice to me, Cheryl :toast:

I love this Cheryl. I suppose if you wanted you could desaturate the center just a touch to bring out more detail but this is gorgeous as posted.

Cheryl:
Looks like a spinning dancer with tangerine skirts. Dreamy and moody.

The soft b/g suits this well. Orange...a very good digital color. This is creamy.

Lovely image, Cheryl ! Beautifully composed, and with such an airy feel which brings out the delicacy of the flower.
