Very sensual ....:-)

Megan McCluskey {K:3762} 6/30/2008

Wow Shirley, this is a beauty. Something to be very proud of. I love the color and the way the veins of the flower are in focus and the rest falls off. Good work.
Regards,
megan

Tim Schumm {K:29196} 6/21/2008

This is a different perspective having the focal attention divided by the out of focus part of the flower creating this unusual visual split. Normally I would not think that this would work...but it has...!!

Ardalan Haddad

{K:15567} 4/2/2008

it's one the most wonderful shots i have ever seen...
there is a very subtle and smooth movement in there...
i can see those very delicate yellow lines...
it's very natural... the shadow,and the blurriness is working great...

the framing is highly appealing to my eyes...
it's just great...

Good luck my dear teacher,
Be Happy,
LOVE creates LOVE,creates LOVE and ...

Beautiful capture Shirley well done

Michele Carlsen {K:146013} 3/28/2008

Beautiful dear Shirley .. it reminds me of melted golden butter how it swirls and flows...and I mean this as a great compliment ...Excellent -7/7

Ameed El-Ghoul {K:42215} 3/28/2008

Wawww .. this is really wonderful shot Shirley, you are getting better and better every day, this one is really wonderful with all those warm colors,
Bbut if I have to be net picky, I would comment on the very thin black line at the buttom, and the upper right corner, I would clone it or crop it :)
Beside this minor thing, it is a wonderful shot by all means,
All the best,

Kiarang Alaei {K:49415} 3/28/2008

Brilliant:
Shirley!
