Lovely details in the flower, Albert, and it stands out very nicely from the background.

A lovely flower, beautifully photographed, Albert. I like very much the space you've given the flower and the touches of sharpness in the fg foliage. Most lovely light too. I am deeply envious of your having such flowers in your own garden ( smile !! )

What a splendid game with the white Cosmos of Ian. Color apart, the two images are taken and composed in a very sumilar way. Really beautiful, Albert.
Take care.

Albert - Excellent management of the surrounding here. The Pink Cosmos really pops out of the screen for me. Lovely :cool:

Very pretty, Albert. I think cosmos rank very high in the most photogenic flowers as shown by this image.

Very nice light for a pretty portrait Albert. I hope that you have these remaining for a bit longer.
