I like the impact of the frame - how did you do that? Might be better if there were more depth of field so the flower would be sharper - but still a nice shot.

I like it.

I think the composition is good and the colors are beautiful. Nice presentation.

wijew,

Subjects are shot as well as ever, and even b/g is notably composed to enhance. And not a bridge or cityscape in sight; good job!

nice capture wijew...shots like these make you wonder why you need all those other lenses...

you must have been pretty close...at least you got away without a sting!

by the way, like kirbinster was asking, how'd you do the framing?
