Excellent use of bright colors, interesting shapes and use of control of focus. I actually think it is a very good quality image and would have given it a 7 during voting had I had time to vote.

I wonder if a slightly different crop/ rotation so that flower center is oriented and centered a bit more geometrically would have raised the score. With the fact that the red 'border' not being even and also not offset siginficantly, the photo appears a bit unbalanced. Taking care to provide the same space around the image throughout would have given it a more polished look. That's my impression anyway - but like I said above - I like the image and I think it works pretty darn well!

I like the vibrancy of the colors and the kaliedescope (?sp) effect.

Hi Jon. I gave this a 6. I liked the macro but I felt the red overwhelmed the picture. I've been trying to take tulip pics lately and have found it's a PITA to do. So I cannot suggest any ways to do this differently lol.

Nice colour, perhaps a bit oversaturated, but interesting.

bright clean in your face colours, nicely shot, good macro. maybe with out the water drops it would a little less like bubbles in the actuall petals
