I really like this image. The colors of the flowers are beautiful! I am a little distracted by the 2 people in the backround. None-the-less a very well done replication of Impressionism!

When I saw this image I found it very interesting and very well composed. The subject ,alignment, DOF and processing in B&W are all excellent. I do not care for the exposure time as the sky is almost dizzying and takes away from the sharpness of the entire image. In order to g et a better feeling of the movement of the clouds I would have suggested a longer exposure time which is difficult when it is very light out. Of course if you like the clouds the way they are that is all that counts! Just my opinion:)

Thank you Roz for your very nice comment. This is a male goldfinch. They are more colorful than the females. I planted sunflowers in my yard and deck. The goldfinches love the seeds and become more prevalent this time of year because they feed the seeds to their young.

Wow! Thank you for the 10 and your very kind comment. Just lucky to be at the right place at the right time. I had been hoping a hummer would show up at this flower as it stood above a patch of wildflowers I had planted. I had been periodically looking at it and know the hummers are most hungry in the morning. The sun was coming up and cast the perfect light on the backround. The bee was a bonus!

Wonderful composition. Even though he is so small the person is a major element in the picture but doesn̢۪t take away from the beautiful sunset. My favorite in the challenge.
