Plumerias are the sweetest smelling flowers you've ever seen. They even smell good when they're wilted and dying. That's why, in Hawai'i, they are often the fist choice of flower to make a lei out of.

I love the depth of field and the color in this. The background looks excellent; not to busy, not to plain, but colorful. The pedals looks beautiful with the wonderful natural gradient. *droops head in shame for using a technical term on nature*
Good choice for a photo too if you ask me. These colors are really vivid, and you somehow managed to capture the spirit of the flowers, I beleive by the composition you set up. The lighting is just perfect too.

i have never seen these flowers.. plumeria..you say? i'm sure they smell wonderful just as they look..the scent must be fabulous! i love their colour combination, they look like little birdies, heheh.. i'm not kidding, look at the flowers in the front, the biggest petals are the body and the folded one with the red ending is the beak :D heheh, marvellous!
i love the colours on this one.. and a great composition here! i like the way the blurry background focuses the front plumerias! i enjoy this image very much :)
thank you for sharing these beauties with us! and congratulations on your first image! have a nice day :)
Yeah, I see the birdie now. Another thing about them: Since their petals overlap each other all the way around, they spin as they fall to the ground. Thanks.

Very nice. Love the lighting and depth of field created here. You've captured the texture and outstanding color of these beauties. An overall pleasure to view and sense.
I like it. I like the blurred and sharp subtle hues - as if I can really smell them from my desktop. Makes me want to go to Hawaii just to see these flowers.
