I like this very much Dave. The colors and light are nice but it's your composition that appeals most to me in the image. I like the Vs in the elements and the space created by the elements and I like the layering in the image - anther's to petals to supporting greens. The bg is busy I think but I like this particular busyness. (smile) An outstanding image for my tastes.

Sweet capture Dave. The light control and detail make this an excellent portrait in my opinion.

Very nice image. The only nit I would have is to brighten the flower just a tad.

Dave:
This is a very nice day lily image. The DOF and POV are just fine and the anthers are nicely framed by the petals. The bg although busy is not distracting.
