I like it very much, but I am curious as to what your goals were. I am guessing high key and good DOF?

Sandy - Very nicely done. I love the dominant mellow yellows in the frame. The Magnolia is soft and sharp at the same time creating more interest.

I like the composition with the diagonal stem leading to the graceful subject. Well captured and displayed in my opinion.

Great colors and depth of field. I like the exposure a lot, too, and the leaf that falls from the flower. Very nice capture!

This is quite lovely! I love how you arranged the flower in the frame & the simple off white background!

Sandy
Lovely magnolia image. Like the diagonal stem and the sharp focus in the center.
