The lighting and brilliant colors of the blooms against a dull background really make them jump off the screen. Nice job, Helen!

Helen, I really like the bright red against that background. The background is not only blurred but also does not contain a lot of color. That makes the red in the foreground show up so bright. Nice entry, as usual. bottles
