| This is one that because of the colors involved (I'm assuming background is green leafy stuff) is hard to get good contrast in B&W. In this case, it may be better in color. The framing and focus is lovely, by the way. Another thing you could try is converting by way of first using a saturation layer to create as much difference in color as possible between the yellows and the greens. I'm not exactly sure HOW to do that - maybe turn yellow down and turn green up, or add black to the green using selective color - that might work. Then convert. |

| I love these; I have some yellow and red ones in my front garden and was going to shoot a red yesterday. There's something about a flower that simply can't be cut and put in a bundle that is perfect (for those who don't know, they won't make it five minutes, or so I'm told); it won't be captured in real life, so this is the best we can do! This is a nice capture. The one I've done as a yellow (with a butterfly in it) looked flat and awful. You've done a really good job with the textures in the petals and the details in the center. |

It sure doesn't look like a weed to me! The delicate detail is beautiful. I don't think I'd mind weeds if they looked like that!

Great DOF, great capture with the water dropplets, I think I would play with levels and contrast just a bit though and maybe burn the backgroound just a little to bring out the flower more, but then my floral shots completely suck so maybe you shouldn't listen to me...LOL.
Great shot!!!

Nice sharp focus, I like the water droplets to add some interest. I don't reallyc are for the background here though, it's a bit distracting.
