Welcome to NPN Shrinivas, and to the Flora gallery. I'm not a frequent visitor to Flora, and certainly not an expert, but I like this quite a bit. Beautiful color and very nice detail. Hope to see many more posts from you, and come visit the Landscape gallery if you get a chance.

Dynamic composition, Shrinivas, and excellent sharpness throughout. I find the colour just a touch rich, but that may be my monitor. Look forward to more from you !!

Welcome to NPN, Srini. This is a wonderful first post. I like the richness of colors and your frame-filling comp. Just curious how this would look rotated 180 degrees; I think I'd like that view from what I see trying to look upside down!

Srini:
A very fine first post indeed. :jump: Dahlia is one of my favorite flower. Nice light and perfect exposure. The petals looks very saturated on my monitor.

Welcome to NPN and Flora in particular. Looking forward to seeing more of your posts.
