They reflect the light in a wonderful way. Just the edges mostly. Excellent exposure and dof. The chocolate browns compliment the gray/greens really well.

Nice find, Eirini. A real beauty. I like the earthtones and green accents. Superbly presented.

Very nice composition of some interesting vegetation. I like the somewhat star-shaped form in the leafy vegetation. Interesting contrasts in texture as well.

Eirini - Nice to see you posting again. Not a flower I have seen before, so a first for me.

Lovely stack (as always), and seeing the large version is a must to appreciate micro-details in the blooms. The dark brown background provides solid contrast.

Love it.

An excellent graphic quality to this image which is unusual in its colors and feel. My taste would be to try a crop or cloning so the that the edges of the frame do not clip any of the flowers. Unexpectedly complementary colors and shapes, so good eye!

Lovely composition and incredible stack, Eirini. I like the subdued three toned palette.
