Rel - BEAUTIFUL colours, nicely contrasted against each other. If I were to attempt to critique this (and its being a bit ultra fussy) I would like to see the pink part of the flower under the tallest stamen more in focus. I think the selective DOF is a ltitle too great. Also perhaps a slightly tighter crop from the left side of the image as you look at it. Let me knwo what you think of those ideas. Cheers big ears.

Rel. This is great and the DOF works very well. Colours are nice too.
