Thanks to my lovely wife for making this wonderful bouquet of flowers from various gardens around the house. Little did she know I'd use it for a photo op...well, on second thought, just about EVERYTHING is fair game around here. :P |

Nice finish. I liked it but thought maybe a ton over processed, but given the challenge, it got a 7. I like the composition and colors. ;~D |

I love the textures in this. Half real, half dreamy. |

I like this one, perhaps a little too centered. Think it would be nice if the light was on the foreground instead of the background. |

Looks like a relief painting with the flowers raised with thickened paint. |

I'm not sure how the coffee mill in the background fits the scene. but I love the effect of the rest of the image. |

Lovely, except for the cloth it's sitting on, it doesn't seem to be in concert with the rest of the colors. |
