Nice Amaryllis shot! I really like your choice of background...it shows off the light pink in the petals very nicely!

Very lovely. A well balanced composition. It looks you've darkened the top of the background a little. I would suggest doing the same to the bottom portion to give it some depth plus help highlight the blossoms better.

Sandy: Good choice of BG and a fine portrait. We have this variety in our garden but still a couple of months away. Beautiful shot. >=))>

Sandy:

A very fine portrait! I like the leaves at the bottom which balance up the composition nicely.
