 Well powerfull dicusions about this one even befor people saw it.
This is a photo i am proud of and will probably allways be.
Can't even remember what i did to it in postpro.. not much thats for sure, Made the Gerbera look more orange then yellow so i would match the blue..

Tell me (presuming that i got my regular low 5 or high 4) what i did wrong.. why dose this not work for you.. ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING can help me..

Woohoo! 45th comment!

Outstanding colours in this shot, and complimentary too. The water drops put it over the top. :)

Great composition and colors, the only thing that would have tried to do is bump up the contrast, everything else looks great.

I think the colors in this shot are so strong. I love your title too :) hehehe, it does appear it was popular in the voting. I like the even lighting without harsh shadows. My only suggestion would be to increase the DOF so that the closest petals to the camera were also in sharp focus. Great job :)

Gorgeous vibrant colours just give life to this shot.
The focus on the Gerbera is perfect and the closeness of the flowers has a strong impact.

Great photo.

Lovely vivid color. Someone mentioned below that it appears a little washed out and I have to agree. Perhaps you should try to bump the contrast just a tad and USM just a tad bit as well. The part of the blue flower in the upper middle of the picture also is distracting for me b/c it is so out of focus.

Love the colors with this. Really forms a great photo. I only think the blacks need to be a bit more black. Nice job otherwise...

i love the colors and the flowers, especialy the blue ones.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 05/03/2006 02:56:17 PM
love the colors in this. Maybe if it was split more in thirds it would have had a little more impact. Lovely picture, though.

"Tell me (presuming that i got my regular low 5 or high 4) what i did wrong.. why dose this not work for you.. ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING can help me.."

As i said, the main thing i didnWHAT I DOLIKE ALOT, however, are the blue flowers on the left. i really really REALLY think that they turned out fantastic. it's as if there was movement all while being so calm and soothing and delicate and graceful and for THAT i congratulate you!

I really like how the colors "jump out". Very eye appealing. Nice touch with the water droplets.

Good variation to the flower theme this challege seems to have.

Very DPC'ish but also very nice! :)
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/30/2006 02:21:19 PM
yes I think so ;) Blue is to orange as Yellow is to purple. This falls somewhere in between. But still a great shot. The dew drops make this image effective. 7

Amazing colours! Well done.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Very DPC-ish! both colours are fantastic and really pop. Very dpc-ish water drops as well. My only criticism is that it really needs a candle and a glass and woody and a woman in a scarf... 10!!! top 10 at least ;)

It seems a paint. Good!

Very nice contrast and mixture of color and flowers. Good choice. I like the shapes of the petals put together. Good job. Very soft to look at, and I think the water really makes it.

Lovely colours, lighting on orange flower seems a little flat
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/28/2006 07:08:44 AM
very nice. Nice textures
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/27/2006 09:58:50 PM
great shot, really love how the colours pop out .. might have tried to adjust the colours on the blue flowers to make them more purple though
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/27/2006 08:33:46 PM
4 - Looks 'flat' in my opinion. Not sure if it is pp or what. Variation in lighting and focal range/depth, may have given this a little extra in my opinion. Don't mind the composition, but, again, would like to have seen a lot more detail in the flowers. edit:typo
