This is beautiful and really well presented. I would be very grateful if you would let me know how you make up your framing and presentation - I am new to process work and am battling to get it right. Thanks. Tim

Very nice macro Panos. Good detail and colour. Nicely presented. We4ll done.

Halo Panos!
You made superb photo! I love it very much with colours and delicacy! Just great.

Excellent composition, DOF and hues. The background is very pleasing and makes a nice combination with the subject. Did u use some kind of cardboard for the background?

Great composition, very nice colours. Good sharpness.
Well done.
TFS.

Hi Panos
A very nice arc, with selective focussing, I like the soft focus affect here, and the colours are great.
BTW
Do you have a quick way in getting the shooting info on to the frame?
PS, I answered your mail, please advise. Regatds

Very nice photo Panos. The composition is very strong and the colours are excellent. I think it is a little soft in focus - I like the curl being OOF but I wish the nearest red flower was the one in focus - I guess that's personal taste. Well done.
