Wow, I love this photograph. Your texture in the background is almost just as exciting as the amazing texture in the foreground. Awesome levels and contrast.

a little over-contrasty and/or over sharpened for my taste.

Beautiful! I love the high contrast in this photo. You're a lot braver than most people have been in pushing that up a bit. It really emphasises the lines of these petals.

The vertical composition leaves too much negative space at top, and cuts off the petal at L. If you really wanted to go this orientation, I'd have moved the bloom higher up in the frame. Cool texture in the petals. Near petal goes oof.

ordinarily i'd say the contrast was too high, but man this works out great. excellent shot.

I love the detail in the petals and stem....I like that there's a background of other flowers instead of just sky...matches the title nicely. I don't know how to comment on this technically but all I can say is I like what I see.

Good depth of field.

I generally like most flower photos including this one.. I think the wrinkles and curls on the leaves of this lily look a little strange though...

B&W doesn't work for me here.
06/04/2002 04:31:00 PM
Very nice, but a little too sharp. I think a softer focus would've been truly effective here (but then again, it probably would've lowered your score).

Good job of capturing the "texture" and isolating your subject.
06/03/2002 06:52:00 PM
i don't usually like flower pictures but this one is good. nice job.
06/03/2002 06:22:00 PM
Good shot, perhaps sharpened a bit too much, the stem esp. seems a bit off. Why take a picture of a flower for a B&W challenge, though?
06/03/2002 05:07:00 PM
?Day Lily. Very nice b&w. Good job.
06/03/2002 12:32:00 PM
The textures are def great, especially the background.
06/03/2002 07:43:00 AM
technically excelent, nice textures and contrast.
shame I've seen too many flower photos to qualify this one as original
06/03/2002 06:04:00 AM
Flowers are one of my favourite nature shots to photograph. You captured this shot well. A well deserving 9

Looks a bit grainy - this might have been caused by shooting so much into the light.
