Here I try to show the tender lightness of this poppy.
(If the background has been replaced, etc. please be honest with your techniques to help others learn)
I like this one, Ben. The shallow dof works well and it is well composed.
Ben: I love the translucence of the petals and the light especially. I also like your POF/DOF choice. I might crop the ULC or do a content aware repair on the OOF purple spots there as they pull my eye a bit but that’s a less than one cent nit. Beautiful image.>=))>
This is quite lovely Ben. I had to take a double-take - and then thank you for the information of the double exposure, which explains the translucence of the poppy pedals. Great job and vision with this.
Colors and processing are excellent. I love the soft, oof, bg flowers providing that contextual back ground. Not a nit really, but I suppose you could tighten up the crop; especially from the left and maybe even some from the right. But that’s minor and an alternative, not a nit really.

Very, nice, Ben. I also like the translucence of the petals, with the other flowers showing through. Great shot.
Nice image Ben. Your choice of subjects and placement are spot on. I too like the transparency of the poppy’s petals. Could you explain further what features are in-camera and which you processed in PS?
@Harley_Goldman @Patricia_Brundage @Bill_Fach @Lon_Overacker @Shirley_Freeman . Thank you all for these positive comments. @Patricia_Brundage next time I shall tell how I did it.
