This Pink Carnation was kind enough to pose elegantly for me one afternoon out on my patio under cloudy conditions. Comments always welcome.

Wow, this is excellent Mary. I love the center light and the shallow DOF. The color and petal layers are superb. A winner.

Very nice image, Mary. Soft colors and sharp where it needs to be. I might like a touch more light on the BRC leaf, but that's not a big deal in my eyes. Very well done..
