Beautiful, Ram. The white on white is exquisite. Perfect dof management. :toast:

Great whites Ram, and excellent DOF and details. I think I would soften the dark area on the top center/left.

The POF is doing wonders combined with the whites :toast:

I like the straight on pedal level perspective and that each pedal has a shadow to make them stand out from the white background. Wonderful close up and overall composition.

Ram: I really like the POF/DOF choice and the overall comp. Top notch in every way. >=))>

A lovely soft image, Ram. I would be tempted to crop a smidgen off the right side for the sake of the thirds, but fine as is. :smile:

Superbly composed, Ram ! The lines of those shadowy petals support the glow of the centre beautifully !! A very tender image.

Lovely, just perfect with the softness around the edges but enough shadow to keep it interesting.
