Tom,
Beautifully captured of these very colorful flowers with a nice scenery to accompany is just a bonus. Great clarity and sharpness, and good composition. Color is very well saturated. Very peaceful. I really enjoyed it.

hello Tom,
beautiful shot of beautiful flowers, I like a lot how you have composed it with a strong diagonal line. the island in the background add a nice sense of depth, and the pale water contrast very well with the saturated flowers. very well seen and presented.

with kind regards,
Kristine

Well done Tom. The whole scene has a magenta cast that blends with the roses. They are beautifully saturated and make a great subject.

Hello Tom,

This is beautiful!
I like the way you have used the colourful roses for f/g interest and composed them diagonally. They make a lovely border over which to view the tranquility of the sea.

Kind regards,
Bev :-)

hello Tom

a nice find indeed. the wild roses with great detail in the foreground on the backdrop of dreamy island scenery. however, what's happening with the color cast in the background? seems a bit too much magenta to me.

other than that, my compliments and warm regards

Hi Tom,
I like the way you present the wild flowers and at once the region as a background.
The bush with flowers is perfectly written.
Best regards.
