Perfect Rense, just perfect. White on while works beautifully and really accentuates the centre of the flowers.

That is really nice!
I'd be so tempted to clone out the branch top left ... or crop to exclude it somehow though ...
It is a nice shot though!
I'm beginning to regret selling my hellios

Wow, what a wonderful picture...

I like how the white fades into the white. Not what you typically see in flower shots. That makes the little bit of green pop out. Very nice, Rense.

Beautiful, just beautiful. I've tried a few flowers recently, and it is not easy to do it well. I can see how some people specialise in it.

Hey, that's a SUPERB photograph, love the shallow depth of field. Well composed, nice. Pleasing to the eye.

A wall hanger ok, well done!!
