Hey, Judy. I feel honored to have outscored you by a full TWO TEN THOUSANDTHS of a point. ;)

Lessee - I got loads more 1-3s, but then again, I doubled your total of 10s. Snort.

Oh. A comment on your shot. Right.

It's very pretty. :) I think a little deeper DOF so everything was sharp, and you'd have a much higher score. Whereas not much could improve my shot, other than not submitting it.

Judy, I have been sooooooooo busy at work that I did not get a chance to vote but this would of gotten a 10 from me. I love the lighting and composition on this. It's not to dark for my taste. Great job!

What a lousy score for an image that glows so beautifully! Thanks to the lighting, the bloom has taken on an almost sugary look, like what you might find on a wedding cake. I like Sandy's comment about the natural purple. The frame's great, the image is subtle and lovely - not too dark at all. Frustrating that you didn't get more comments.

Incredible lighting on a gorgeous natural purple. I favor the photos that came by the purple honestly rather than thru manipulating the colors to something they are not. Beautiful work!
