you have a supernal ability to create variations on a theme, united by their subject matter but with no end to their variety. your treatment of color and tone are always very strong. the consistency you achieve is admirable.

great use of DOF in this series, something I've often seen you use to good effect. is this an almond blossom?

AWESOME. Has to be one of my favorite in your portfolio. Love how you made simple smoke look so peaceful.

Very beautifully composed and balanced photograph. The lighting is exceptional. Is the flower floating on water? I really love these floral macros you do, they all so exceptional. Definately gallery pieces!

I like the softness and mood of this image. The colors are so pleasing to look at! The one thing I think would help this most is cropping a bit of the dark space from the left and up a little from the bottom. I think the space on the left adds little and cropping might place the subject a bit better. The contrasty ribbing on the bottom seems to demand undue attention as well.

I like the lighting, tones and the shallow DOF. The focus on the texture at the bottom is rather distracting.

I really like this. I think I'd crop out the stripes in the bottom left corner as they tend to drag the eye away from the flowers and add a bit of harshness to an otherwise soft photo.

It is all about the light and here it all works.
