What a lovely grouping! I like the tiny peeks of some other blossoms behind the leaves. . .they are subtle enough to not be distracting from the main group. Very good details and nice handling of the whites.

This is just delicious, Barb ! The whites are perfect for bringing out the petal textures,and I love the overall tonality. Beautifully composed ( not least for the peeping out petals !! ) and processed.

Beautiful Barb! I love the details on the white petals. That said, I would also appreciate it a tad brighter. But love the shot as is!

Barb: The texture in the white petals is exquisite! The dof and square format is perfect for this set. Well done!
