Very pretty, Barb. Normally, I might not care for the layered bg with the light top layer, but it coordinates very well with the subject in the case. This image would go well side by side with your previous version with the pink buds.

The DOF is fabulous within the blooms, Barb. Wonderful sharpness and details. They are some very pretty blossoms. I would prefer a single color BG - or one not layered, but it is not bad.

I agree with Scott concerning the lighter upper layer, for this subject it works fine..
Fine detail, color, and the exposure's perfect Barb

Absolutely perfect depth of field, and the soft colors and tones are very evocative!

Quiet, subtle colors, wonderfully understated and tack sharp. I think the upper layer is the weaker part of the image.

Barb - Absolutely crisp whites and great focus. The flowers look very very fresh. Very nice frame even with some observations on the background.

Absolutely charming, Barb ! Excellent control of the whites to get the petal textures, good composition and the mid-distance leaves making a nice foil for the flowers against the graded backdrop.

Barb, Great isolation, excellent handling of the whites. A lovely group of flowers in great shape and a very nice presentation.

Barb: I thought I had commented on this earlier but have no idea what happened to it. Anyway, I like this a lot and for me the BG is a plus. Classic Spring image carried off very well. >=))>
