You captured a colorful grouping of cone flowers with the complementary magenta and green colors. However, the left side of the image is not congruous with the green and magenta colors and is a bit distracting. You might try cropping the left side of the image to eliminate the dark brown patch of mulch and gray stone.   Posted: 09/04/2023 18:48:18

Great colors, focus and clarity in this very pleasing photo of cone flowers. I agree with David about cropping the left side and then I would suggest using a slight vignette around the edges to help keep the eye in the frame.   Posted: 09/09/2023 10:22:09

Nice color, contrast of colors(Green and Magenta). Somehow it seems to be a two sided images, break out in the middle, not connected. also a lot of bright spots on the right half. Would suggest to remove those high-bright spots, distractions.   Posted: 09/15/2023 16:51:06

Such beautiful flowers. You have captured the colors of magenta and green so well. I agree that a crop on the left would eliminate the brown patch. A little crop off the top would take away those 3 magenta petals that take your eye up out of the frame.   Posted: 09/28/2023 19:12:24

Very nice flower image. The pink flowers were roughly evenly distributed without real center focal attention.   Posted: 09/30/2023 07:02:39
