Might be a common flower, but nevertheless a beautiful one, Tom. Nicely done.

Great composition and details, Tom, the OOF blue spots add to it.

Beautiful shot, I like the soft light and the intense blue colours.
Great how the flower was framed by other flowers in the background.

Love this! So beautifully placed amongst the blue background and the gorgeous blues brought out in the main flower. A work of art.
