Now this is something I have submitted on the viewfinder few months ago but I felt like giving it another run here to hear your thought.

Hey Seb,

I love it. I really like the DOF and the one sharp tulip. I also think that the b&w treatment works quite well with this image, but I'm wondering what a color version would look like. Don't post one tho, cause I know I will like this one better. There doesn't seem to be a lot of contrast in this image, but I really think that adds to the softness and the mood of this shot.

Hi Seb,
I like it. I like the triangle form by the right tulip and the other 2 on the left. I wish to see other triangles in the arrangement to echo the triangle I mentioned, but it is my preference. Nice shot!.

Seb, this is very nice and the b&w works . good detail in the foremost tulip. The dark flower behind the main one seems to be crowding a bit and I think it's because of its deep shadow along with it being taller.A dodge brush set to shadows could air it out some and give it more a faded bg feel. This is only a nit and opinion of course. you have a fine image here. btw, I remember Nina telling me about this one you posted on viewfinder when you got back from visiting here. She liked it alot. I see why.

Hi Seb,
I like it all as is. Very pleasant to look at for a while.

Is all the bg blur from the lens wide open? If so, nice lens. Also, good job at the PP to keep the blur from getting noisy.

Not much to add. What a wonderful image!

Very nice, Seb. Framing/perspective/crop, DOF, tonality and detail - all well done.

I remember this pic. I still like it. Flowers are typically well represented in color often times but you worked the b & w here. I really like how that flower in the front looks. It stands out & looks so well defined but also fits in with the other flowers making a nice image. Great shot.

Hello guys, thanks for commenting.

This was shot with my Tamron 28-75mm XR di at 75mm (f/2,8 iso 200) and there was no post processing beside the b&w conversion and some selective sharpening on the main tulip after compressing the picture for web displaying so yes, the lense did almost all the job.

Truthfully, I don't really like the original color version so I don't intend to submit unless someone is truly interested to see it.

best regards

Seb
