Great perspective. Focus is good through the entire picture. I like the lines, especially the diagonals. The stairs take me to the roof which takes me to the tower, thus hitting the entire image.

Excellent shot I liek the angle a great deal. The border is very fitting, and the text goes along perfectly. Looks just like a postcard. Well done!

Greetings fromt the Critique Club
Hi Ms. Nasti!

Composition
The composition on this shot is superb. I have two minor gripes - the flower that is laying down and the sliver of yellow in the ULC.

Color
These colors are beautiful. I wish I could get my camera to come up with anything NEAR this. The saturation at that shutter speed is superb. I love the contrasts of the white and yellow on the greenery surrounding it.

Focus
The focus on this shot bugs me a bit. It's hard because my eyes see the petals and flowers as focused and all of the green out of focus. At this aperature, I'm surprised that this much of the flower is in focus, but I like the strangeness of the focus here.

Subject matter
Well, the subject was flora and you shot outdoor flowers - can't beat that! :) I am also wondering about these tulips - I haven't seen flowers like this before.

Overall
Overall you got a 6.3! What do you want me to say!? haha

Ok seriously - with the exception of those two minor compositional things, all is beautiful here.

Strange tulips. The ones around here have wider petals. Curious to know where these are from. The yellow/green combo is really nice. I like how you have blurred the background, and it is not distracting. The angle and framing/cropping is nice too. Lighting on the subject looks really nice. Rreally helps to bring out the colors. Great shot. ~Heather~

Very nice. Bright colours, nice DOF, good lighting and strong composition. I'm giving this one 10, because I can't see a single flaw!

Great title.... I love these birds! Awesome texture and their white feathers are so pure. Nice shade of green in the background, too. 9
