Exceptionally good Raj, you have captured such detail and delicacy. Blurred background is great too.
I love this one.

Gorgeous Raj. Just simply gorgeous. Thanks for the clarity and wonderful soft colors and lighting. Exceptional piece.

After a bit of an absence, partly vacation but mostly tax season...busy for bookkeeping businesses... I'm glad to be back out here with at least 'some' regularity. I've missed everyone and am glad to have a little more time again.

This is but one of your images that I find very visually compelling.

Saw it before on another tour of your galleries and it beckoned me once again.

It may be the symmetry of your image here ... it may be the colour palette ... it is most certainly, the DOF that caught and intrigued my eye. The bloom almost appears 3D like to me, reaching out from the confines of its' borders.

I might have been tempted to ramp up the colour saturation ... as Samatar does quite frequently in his captures. Yes, it does take away from the 'natural' colour ... but, the results can be quite visually explosive. Just some thoughts, if you will.

Well done. I like this one a lot. :o)
