I think sometime we would like to see an overall photo of your garden, Albert. So many wonderful flowers you have! The color here is magnificent, and the dof works to bring the attention to the pollen covered stamens. :toast:

Excellent light, detail, and color, Albert. Good job getting the anthers all in focus.

Nice form to the composition. I like how this has a vortex feel leading my eye right to the center of the frame.

Albert - Really like the textures and the sheen on the petals. Focus is precisely on the anthers and the pollen grains are sharply rendered.

If possible advise re-visiting the left bottom corner.

Great color & focus on anthers & pollen. I would try a crop about halfway between the anthers & bottom.
