Dewey Dahlia 3

Another comp of the same dahlia. Something a bit different than standard (classic) comps, again framing the dahlia with some of the greenery. Natural light, public garden. D600, Sigma 150 f2.8 macro @ f25, iso 200. Let me know your thoughts on this one.

This one takes the prize, Scott. I love the composition with the bg in the top picking up the yellow center of the flower and adding a lot of sun to the feel of the image. Wonderful work.

Hi Scott, I agree with Dennis here - this one gets it! - the 'non-standard ' composition works well - there is a real glow to the image. Great stuff!

Scott: Honestly I was "meh" when looking at the thumbnail but when this opened I was very pleasantly surprised and the larger version is a pure delight. This is good photography. >=))>

I like this comp a lot, Nathan, and the light and colors are beautiful! I also like the greenery partially framing the Dahlia and I like the yellow bg at the top of the frame.

I like this, but I am still on the fence with the greenery.
