Description

I saw this exotic flower in botanical garden. I looks bit like star:D

:iconblogsobrelaarena: identified it as Passiflora edulis or passion fruit. And even gave me this two wikipedia info links: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passiflo… en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harmala_… . Many thanks.

Túto exotickú kvetinu som videla v botanickej záhrade. Trochu mi pripomína hviezdu:D

Vďaka blogsobrelaarena už viem, že ide o zástupcu mučeniek (Passiflora), ktorej plody sú u nás známe ako maracuja. Link na info v slovenčine: www.kpr.sk/casopisy/index.php?…

Thank for your comments! Let me share a proper critique.

What I like:

1) Sharp - The Sharpness and Noise are nearly perfect!
2) Colors, you choose a great flower with a perfect color pattern. I notice you also found a nearly symmetrical flower. You have a good eye.
3) Framing, You have the leaves positioned so the lines on each leaf force the eyes to the center of focus. This is a perfect effect.

What I would change/try:

1) DOF - I would have opened it up JUST a touch to remove the blur on the top stamen. This may have required pulling back slightly with a prime lens.
2) Leaves --- I would have tried to get a bit more green.

What I hate: Nothing -- Very excellent shot.
