The lightning is fantastic, reminds me of a faery tale. You know at first glance I thought that wet looking green part of the flower/stem was a frog. Yes, strange.
I really love the colors and the backround, Awesome shot.
Hi Cindy, how are you able to make such a simple wild flower appear so very special, and again, you surely can and do! It is remarkably, delicately precious with marvelous color and elegance! Very nice Cindy! Sincerely, Marilyn
WOOT Cindy! This is nice Girl! I love how you used the spotlight filter to shadow the outside of the photo, bringing more focus on the true colors of the main object! You are a fabulous photographer!!
Hey, I like the unique lighting here. That flower really shows up. The back lighting is super. The various colors throughout this plant are gorgeous. Very well done. No need to send a thankyou. Some of us are trying to stop this time consuming activity. . Just use the time saved to create another pretty picture.

You have done great work here. So much have been said already so maybe there's no way left to praise this image. Instead I could point out something that I don't like :P It's the way you have darkened the other parts of the image. The effect is too obvious to me and a little too strong. But at the same time the effect leads to the leaves and let the leaves stand out so maybe it was just better to do the darkening...
