This is probably the last of these I'll trouble you folks with. I do appreciate the comments on the previous versions.

I appreciate all comments and critique.

Beautiful! Lovely play of light and shadow. I like the warm autumn color palette.

A little noise reduction might be nice.

Hi Robet,
Warm and inviting color! I like your double flowers/frame filling composition. I would perhaps crop the bottom a little if it were mine.

Wonderful composition and color. The only critique I have is that a color cast seems to be present. May want to play with the white balance to see if it makes a difference.

Maybe a small crop off the bottom would focus the eyes more on those two beautiful blooms, but it's very nice as posted. Love the warm color and soft lighting.

Bob - You really pulled off both the blooms incredibly well. Probably my most favourite from your series. Glad you kept the best for the end.

Crop from the bottom finds favour with me too, but its enjoyable as is too :wavey:

Bob:
I think this is the best of the series. Frame filling orange and yellow with repeating geometry. :toast:
