Leave it to you, Shu, to make an image that just blows me away. This is stunning.

Love the strong verticals in every part of this composition. Normally I would be put off by such a heavy saturation of color, but here it has the opposite effect and totally captivates me. Well seen and striking execution. -Michael

Most splendid! glad you mentioned it wasn't a PS desaturated image because that's just the most awesome thing I've seen in a while. no PS! haha that's awesome. Even if it was desatured I'd like it. This looks great! -Techo :)

Nice. Ordinarily, I'm not a big fan of selectively colored shots, but (a) the gray and saturated red hues blend wonderfully here, and (b) your frame is a strong complement. One of my favorites thus far. --Mr. Biscuit

Actually, I wondered if you did do a Desat...so extra credits for just seeing this! Also, the red border is a nice touch. Best Wishes, Traveller

No desats here! A red cyclamen against white blinds in a white vase. I noticed the scene as I sat on the sofa and grabbed my D. I'm pleased with it. Thank you Tiffany and Traveler. I feel as tho I'm in the "ball park" with your feedback! LOL shu

the petals look almost surreal. the vibrant red is very nice. the selective desaturation works really well here too. well done.

Shu, this is a lovely use of selective color in an arresting way. Just...gorgeous...what else can I say. Best Wishes, Traveller
