Beautiful flower captured well. I like the framing of the flower by the white and light blue background, kind of opposite of vignetting. It works well. Perfect for a greeting card.

Thanks Ravi, My Hollyhock plant has finished blooming for the year.

My first thoughts were that this would make a great greeting card. No suggestions to improve, very nice as is.

John Wayne: Beautiful flower and an interesting presentation. The abrupt cutoff of the stem bugs me a little and wonder if there is a way to fade it out a bit. Of course not knowing what is below your cutoff point makes that pure speculation for me. My only other suggestion would be to clean up some of the blemishes on the flower. Still a beautiful presentation. >=))>

Repost of Hollyhock: removed bottom leaves on stem and cleaned up blimishes.
Thanks, Wayne
