Oh, how pretty, Elisabeth! I really like the lighting in this, especially the backlit flower. Wonderful colors, great comp, and I like your DOF choice. Very dreamy picture.

I like the clarity and lighting of the FG flower. What I really find interesting is the appearance of the background "objects". You have two completely different subjects in the same image. Nice stuff!

My only minor suggestion would be to make a very small crop from the top to remove that bluish "blob" that is directly above the flower.

Yep, another Czwikla.

Your treatment of light and space is phenomenal here.

Elisabeth - Another nicely composed photo with painterly background

. I really like the light and shadow play on the petal on the tiny yellow flower in focus.

Elisabeth:
Undoubtedly the best of the series yet! Love minimalist look and the supporting cast in the bg.

I would like to see it large to truly evaluate the technical side Elisabeth.
That said, I agree with the consensus - Interesting treatment of light & space..
