It really is beautful but you have to see the flower bigger.As in the large frame .The water adds to the photograph as well. |

Your use of such a small aperture is really instructive. The light is perfect. Very impressive.

I think you've got far too many ribbons if you have to check online which challenges you got them for ;-) Just kidding, congratulations on this one. Great shot. |

f22 and probably across the room a bit. Was wondering how you got such excellent DOF on this. Congrats on the ribbon, a killer score, and a really, really good flower picture! (And I do agree with the commenter who said it would stand alone just fine without the water drops.) |

Crisp,and professionally done, quality is written all over this. Its refreshing to see an entire flower in focus, i personally don't enjoy the ones with the very shallow dof. Well done. |

High-end stock photography quality photo. Definitely worthy of a print. So clear and crisp. I only wish the background wasn't so black, but softer more subdued shade. The border is nice and not distracting, but could have been a different colour. |
