Hi brigitte

I knew it was yours from the thumbnail

Beautifully composed with perfect POV and DOF. the white and orange BG goes wonderfully with the sublime main subject..... the white Daffodil

I like this for many reasons: The POF on the flower in the lower right third, the remaining OOF flowers, the high key processing and the hint of green at the bottom. Very nicely seen, done and processed.

Beautiful presentation of a difficult floower to capture well in my opinion due to the whites.. you have isolated and presented it so will with the background and bit of green on the bottom.. Very nice!

Nice, Brigitte ! Like the selection and placement of the solitary flower against the varying depths of colour in the bg.

This is nice. Good placement of the main subject. Nice oof bg and excellent handling of the high key whites. Very "happy" shot.

A lovely floral compositon, Brigitte! Good DOF choice. Adherence to the
rule of thirds for the central subject which is sharp.

Really nice Brigitte! I've had this vision in my my but the Daffodils were too sparse to get this seen. You captured this seen beautifully!
