[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
These bouganvillas above the river chavon aren't really "wild"...somebody must have planted them! Hell, they didn't fly here all the way from Brazil (the land of their origin). Their color saturates the film because they are so "éclatantes".

Good composition and a lovely subject. I think the colours are a bit too harsh, though. I posted a Workshop to show what I mean. Hope you don't mind.

HI Michael,
Nice shot. I like how you have framed your shot with the beautiful flowers.
Nice greens in the background.
Well done
:)

Hi Michael.
Really amazing picture. You have selected subject for shooting and POV extremely well. Colours of your picture are wonderful, as well as the details of whole image, exposure and contrast. For my taste the cropping on the top is too strong. It would be better to see the sky a bit. My compliments and best regards. Superb done.
Alexei.
