Exceptionally lovely flowers, Nick. In the square format, I can't decide whether the color variation is distracting or not ... A larger image might have been a great thing to include.

Nice job,

Cheers,

Carol

Superb composition Nick. I also like the light and the subject separation you accomplished. Hard to imagine this being done any better. Beautiful work.

Nice depth Nick. Some great looking flowers too. Very nice color. I like the separation of the blooms from the BG too. I think the comp works well also.

Beautiful picture, Nick! Great DOF and the flowers really show off well against the dark BG. I like the square format and your comp.

What a beautiful composition and perfect work. The flowers seem painted and the colors have a watercolour look. Splendid image.
Take care.

A real feeling of gaiety about this, Nick ! As nice a primula image as I can recall, beautifully coloured and full of delicate contours which yield a very pleasing composition.
