Nasturtiums? I thought at first glance you'd found orange morning glories! The fence makes a nice contrast. Flowers look a little too bright and saturated on my monitor.

Kind of a sci-fi look to the background. Flower is nicely placed over the hand.

The Hellyans Feast on the Mothership
by Art Roflmao

Comment:
I like the wider crop from an aesthetic perspective. It's actually a very nice shot, with interesting angles and lighting.

Also, one could get the impression from the tighter crop that the skin is actually the upper lip of an older Hellyan taking a chomp out of the babies in their nest, and we just cannot have that kind of false impression left with the viewer, now can we? A few holes eaten in the skin of the mothership or a more raggedy edge would go far in guiding the viewer to the correct interpretation regardless of crop.

ROFLMAO :-))) I am actually checking this thread first thing in the morning to see the next installment in the Hellyans' story. The sidetracking is working; the Hellyans have invaded my brain ==:-O

He looks really good against the pink, but I bet he would look good against most any color scheme.

The colors are great fun. I could see this being someone's nightmare shot if they're afraid of snakes, though.

She's gorgeous! Her coat just gleams. Rotts (or RottenWilders, as a friend calls them) are terrific dogs.
