Not sure if I have posted this here before. This is an image from Riverside Park in Milwaukee I took in 2011.

180mm, ISO640, 1/160s@F/5.6, tripod/cable release, natural light. Cropped slightly for composition. Toned down one bright spot in the background.

Govind: I don't recall seeing this before. Excellent DOF management and a fine BG. Love the center details especially. Most excellent.>=))>

Very nice, Govind. Terrific color and excellent pof/dof management. I could see cropping a bit more off the left side.

I like the shapes in the BG Govind. Those pistils(?) (anthers(?)) are lined up very nicely in the center. Nicely colored too.

Hi Govind

The colors and detail are perfectly captured, also like the DOF choice aagainst the fine BG.

Govind:

A lovely image. Like the shallow DOF concentrated on the stamens.
