Thank you for entering my competition. You have perfectly captured the sense of summer with the cool white and yellow. colours. I like the unusual point of view so that the centre of the flower is just glimpsed through the petals. Lovely bokeh. Well done!

Thank you for entering my competition. I love the softness of this image and the simple colour palette. The composition is spot on with the single petal in focus and a suggestion of the structure of the rest of the bloom. Well deserved first place.

Thank you for entering my competition. I was drawn to the sculptural simplicity of this minimalist image which captures the spiky structure of the thistle. You have perfectly captured the detail of the flower head and the plain white background offsets the delicate purple of the bloom. Well done

Thank you for entering my competition. I was drawn to this dramatic image. I especially like the original point of view of the rose. The lighting is emphasises the shape of the petals and the rich colours just glow. Well done on second place

Thank you for entering my competition. I love the way the lighting emphasises the dramatic shape of the bloom and creates some lovely shadows within the flower. The sharp spikes contrast beautifully with the soft texture of the petals. The subtle colour palette also works well. Well done!

Thank you for entering my competition.. I love the dramatic composition of this minimalist image. The strong diagonal of the leaf perfectly emphasises the sculptural shape of the lily and the green perfectly complements the bright pink and yellow shades of the flower. Well done.
