Wow !! These are really great shots and I like the color in both of them. I have never seen a bird of paradise before but is really beautiful. Thanks for sharing these.

I agree...wish I could grow bird of paradise in our area also. Love the orange colors in both photos...very crisp/sharp.

I also agree on the no responses...sometimes these threads fly thru here. I try to go thru past pages to see what I've missed overnight or if I've been gone during the day, but there are many I will not get to unfortunately.

Excellent colours, composition and DoF, a joy to look at, good job Quo Fan

Not getting any replies? ? Something must be wrong with you to not expect any replies for such crisp shots! Well done.
