A lovely image, so delicate looking and the back of the flower looks more colourfull than the front.

I really like the soft orange background, it really brings out the delightful markings on the Gladiolus. Superb shot.

I can almost smell it. Wonderful colors. Great DOF. Well done, Sheila.

Beautiful tones Sheila. I don't suppose the tips of the flowers made it into the photo? Did you try some curves adjustment to make it a bit brighter to see what that would look like too? Except subject and composition. John
