If you hadn't put it in your description, I was going to ask about corn lilly. This is the clearest green, no flaws or variations in color and it looks soothing on the desktop.

This makes a terrific desktop. It's clear, calming, and there is a flow to the leaves that make it quite artistic.

Very nice shot! The best of the greens I've ever seen! Great green! Very clear shot for an up close shot and no blurs! Nice job as always!

Very beautiful image. Again, very professional.

I am not sure why this and others of yours and others, too, have the sizing as is. The border being cropped the way it is, does a slight injustice for me to the image. If you were to examine the top portion, it's fullness in subject matter is complimented by the black. Contrarily the bottom is not. The areas of the photo that are slightly darker in the bottom portion are heightened by this cropping.

The eye, or I should say my eye, is tricked into thinking the image is out of balance and it really is not. The composition is very good. And I will say that this is offset to a degree, when you view it full-size.

A frame of some sort, perhaps? A suggestion.

I do like this very much. Again, simplicity translating into sophistication.

Great work.
