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. Joey

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*

The mood created with the colors, light, and depth of field is wonderful. Very nice shot.

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!

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.

That is one beautiful photo. The pattern in the background is a great contrast, it really makes the colors of the flowers pop

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.
