Very good shot Thad but it looks like the HDR messed with the petal edges to me.

Love the angle and the mood it sets by the lighting. The background out of focus greens is really eye catching as well.

Although the pink one is more colourful I like this one more. The lighting, the angle or composition, the clarity and the blurred background all together make this a lovely image, Thad.

Like to copy the words said by Raj above, as he has hitted the nail on its head. Wonderful flower post Thad.

I can't decide which of your two photos I like better, they both are so different. I love the focus and background on this one. They make for a fascinating shot.

A really unusual agle for this one, Thad. But the lighting and details and crispness can't be argued with.

Thad...I know I'm being unnecessarily repetitive and redundant, but your flower photos are amazing. I refuse to fill my "fav" locker with your flower photos as a matter of general principle.
