I love this shot. I do like the new take on it -- the edited blurring of everything around it and the focus on the flowers in the center. Takes all the attention from everything else in the photo -- I like it. <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/h/h…" width="15" height="13" alt=":heart:" title="Heart"/> Also kinda seems like it's in an enchanted fog... <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/b…" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)"/>

The lighting is very good. Not too bright, not too dark -- gives the flowers a special luminosity and power. It has a good angle as well. <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s…" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)"/>

The flowers have excellent clarity, and I like the little buds behind them. Beautiful. <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/l/l…" width="26" height="17" alt=":love:" title="Love"/>

One thing that kinda ticks me off (although not too much) is the bottom right corner -- the buds/blooms aren't as blurred, but not as focused. It takes away some of the magic from the center, but at the same time it gives the photo another subject. So it helps and hurts at the same time. Everything else is pretty good though. <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/b…" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)"/>

Excellent work overall. <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/l/l…" width="26" height="17" alt=":love:" title="Love"/> <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/h/h…" width="38" height="15" alt=":hug:" title="Hug"/> <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/h/h…" width="15" height="13" alt=":heart:" title="Heart"/>
