The sparking detail is wonderful. I'd love to see this more abstract though from right side to center.

I always have a hard time doing African violet photos - the surface is so shiny. I think if you look at the other flower shots in this challenge you will see notable differences in the area of composition and choice of background, focus acros the subject, and attention to detail such at the shadows across the flower. Keep up the good work.

Absolutely beautiful. Great lighting landing on this beautiful creature. I wish I could see this in my garden right now! Lovely colouring of the yellow and pink with that tiny touch of green.

Beautiful lighting. I wish the left side was cropped a bit more to focus my attention solely on the subject.

Pretty shot. Light is just a bit harsh. Colors are fantastic.

Nice flower. Needs more even lighting - the shadows are a distraction.
