To me, the unusual color palette makes this shot stand out.

WOW! Colorful. The purple flower stands out well from background. My eyes find the colors jarring but I'm sure that's a personal preference thing, Scott. I might be tempted to isolate and mask the subject flower and add a purplish cast to the background flowers.

My 2-dents.

Scott - The colors hit right in the face in a good way. The lighted base of the Tulip also adds more interest. Excellent Frame :toast:

Wonderful splash of background color to show off the purple tulip. An excellent shot, well seen, well done.

The colors and the primary focus totally sell me on this. Best of the three, IMO. :toast: :toast:

I like the title choice because this member of the 'Royal' family must be king!
Especially striking color 'clash' that really grabs your attention..
And deservedly so :smile:
Very nice Scott :toast: :toast:
