Oh, I didn't get to this during voting (only got about 2/3 done). It is beautiful. The colors are amazing. The golden starry lights are lovely. The rest of the voters seemed to agree. Woo hoo -- 2 faves. This would be really nice on a wall.

Great eye. I like this one. My only complaint would be to maybe clone the rail out on the bottom. It's a bit distracting but the subject does certainly make up for it. Nice work.

Wow! The post processing you did really brings out the details of the flower and really makes it the star of this composition. Love the textures you can see on each individual petal of the flower - one can almost reach out and touch the softness. Love the details of the background environment that this dogwood flower exists in. The surrounding nature is lovely and it does not overwhelm or detract attention away from your main subject. In fact it greatly complements it. Tones and contrast are absolutely wonderful in this shot. I really don't have any suggestions on how to improve or any critiques on this one for you did a fabulous job.

I love the way the sky and the water match and that the boats are so clear. It's gorgeous!

the composition looks quite interesting, i kind of like the presence of the flag in front of her, makes this look less posed and real.

Top photograph.

Love the off centre symettry and the outstanding dof employed. The flower has a wonderful 3D effect

Superb!
