Your grasp of color here is excellent, although some of the other comments disagree, the flatness of the background is vital to the success of the image. Keep up the great work!
This is really beautiful. The colors are excellent and I like the blue shadow of the vase. The perspective is nice and it sort of gives it a 3-D effect.
The color and clarity on this photo is phenomenal. I also love the framing and overall composition. The only improvement that I could see would possibly be to have done this on a white background. I believe that the white would really set off the flower and the blue shadow of the vase :) - great shot = 9 - jmsetzler
Wow, beautiful vivid colours, a very bold composition. The background is a nice texture, but the colour is a bit bleh. I guess it contrasts well with the flower and vase, but isn't very nice to look at.
Wicked angle! I like it. Flower is so sharp, it almost appears overlaid, incredible look, just wonderful. Great color, even the pavement. Photo 10 Creativity 9 Shadows 9 total 9
I love this image, as the shadow and the flower are very nicely integrated. First I thought it was a flower and a pipe. I feel that the croping on the top is a little too tight, and the dark patch on the top right corner is a little disturbing.
Very good! The shadow really adds to this. It seems to make almost a tropical look. If shot on white sand it would look fabulous (as if we can pull white sand out of our back pocket when we need it). Anyway, good job.
Very nice use of color -- creates a cool 3D effect. Excellent. NOTE: Last day of voting and I am reviewing my voting. Moving your entry to 10 as I feel it's the best photo of the week.
Looks like a saxaphone. I think I would have liked this more on a black or a smoother more neutral backdrop....do shadows show against black? Great colors in the glass and vase. The shadows a little too tall for a totally pleasing composition from this angle.
