    Lots of flowers being posted of late. Thought I would join the crowd. Can't believe summer is nearly over. When the sunflowers throw pollen summer days are numbered.

    Great detail- I wish the yellow were a little brighter at the top of the photo

    It is a good shot, but the exposure is too even for me. It needs a lot more drama for me. But I am three sigma, so feel free to ignore...

    An unusual photo, something I never saw before. I think the colors should be punched up a little though. Try the fade compensation filter.

    I think it is fine as is cf. You might try and add just a little more saturation just to see but I think it is fine. I really like the crop and close in look.

    Hmm. This is an unusual image CF. It seems like it was one of those bright sunny days and it did something to the exposure or color. I like the way the pollen is visible, but not sure why this one seems a bit unaesthetic to me. You did what you could with the crop, I see.

    Thanks guys. Much appreciated. You are correct the bright sun did cause a bit of havoc so decided to tone it down a bit so as to produce something out of the ordinary, not so predictable when it comes to flowers. Thanks again.
