I dig this soft blurred effect. Baby blue background looks great against this complimentary colored flower.

Good abstract. Looks like you moved in a semi circle with the shutter open.

Nice work and what really makes this picture is the beautiful combination of orange and blue.

The set of pictures done in this style are as a whole very cool- but this one in particular. The gentle curves that showed up in the dandelion petals are remarkable. I think that this would be a great image for a summer tablecloth or a doormat (if you don't find it insulting for me to say that one of your images would make a proper doormat. What I suppose I mean is that it's pleasant and subdued, and would make a good sort of 'background' image- something that you don't often attend to but if you do, it can hold your interest).

Yeah. I'm glad you posted these!

Lovely abstract pastel. Perhaps this could have worked quite well in the impressionist challenge a few months back. Well done. Bumping up.

How gratifying it is to come across truly marvellous photographs like this one! It turns the tedium of a few hundred shots into a hunt for the Holy Grail. :-)

I have no reservations about any aspects of this impressionistic creation. I am elated and inspired by it. -M'excuse, I got carried away: the title 'describes' an all too obvious attribute -and this, perhaps, too mildly. One would expect the strong visual charge to be conducted by the title. (?)

Wonderful use of photography to create abstract art. I really can see Van Gogh's influence in this; the colours, strokes and curves all support that. 8
