Nice simplicity, color, clarity. Perfect use of DOF.

8 - Very nice. Good vivid coloring and the texture capture and detail is good. Difficult, but perhaps the focal point(s) adjusted slightly, don't know how, just like to see those 'bristles' more defined. Not sure what this is, will be back PC to see. The only two things in my opinion which detract from this shot, but both fairly minor, are the slightly 'blown' area middle left and the line/curve of the petal/frond/whatever bottom left. Also fairly minor but a more finely tuned cropped may have also made this even better, in my opinion. Nice title.

Great use of complimentary colors for this image. The textures could have been enhanced a tad but the composition and overall appeal is there. Good luck!

Very good exposure and image quality. I like the color. I'm not crazy about the horizontal format. I wonder if this would be better rotated 90 degrees clockwise?
