Your work is alway a pleasure to view Steve. The flower is gorgeous and I love the perspective in the other three captures. My favourite is the reflected building shot but all of them are excellent captures. Thanks for sharing your beautiful work Steve.

Dave.

Great set Steve. It's first and third for me too. I love the texture and shades on the the flower and the black background enhances it. Well done mate. PAUL

I love your perspective on the buildings Steve. I particularly like the way you have framed the archways. Perfect!

These are excellent Steve, I particularly like the second and third, although all pictures in the set are top quality.
The second has now just my favourite, it really is very good
