Thanks a lot for your comments on Turk's Cap Lily and let me know what you think of this one.

Ram: Frame filling fantastic. Classic comp and superb exposure control. Most excellent.>=))>

Ram, I like the composition here very much. The eye is taken smoothly from left to right by the petal pattern. For me, the color isn't as good as in your previous posts - I get the impression that it is a little washed out especially on the right, with not quite enough contrast on the extreme right. A pleasing image, however.

Well defined, lovely yellow and white combo, and classic composition. The sharpening on both the small and the large photo is good.

Reminds me of portraits of the sun. Shining like it and yellow, too. Beautiful image with an excellent comp and wall to wall detail.
