    I love this image, the single flower, looks lonely, and it is very thought provoking, i like the blend between complete blue sky and the hay-like brown of the field with the bright red, single flower is marvelous.

  2. Alice DeFriez Says:

    Outstanding! I love these types of pictures!

  3. Rastello Says:

    did you pick all the other flowers?

  4. Kirk Jordan Says:

    I think the title should be “Flower of Spain.”

  5. Ahmed Sharif Says:

    nice concept……. great contrast of colours……. looks almost surreal, but very soothing…..

  6. Anurag Anurag Says:

    Very sublime. Really super (saturated) colors. I would have composed for a level horizon or would have corrected it PP.

  7. su su Says:

    Just beautiful………..

  8. Ann Says:

    Less is more. Love the concept.

  9. Luca Says:

    Wonderful!

  10. Alex Says:

    Very good job. This is what photography is about. A great artistic result that would sell well in any art gallery.

  11. G. Says:

    wow, i almost imagine this is not real. Very nice shoot!

  12. Pauline Jones Pauline Jones Says:

    Very effective; I would never have thought of that treatment.

  13. KeithT Says:

    I like this image a lot. My only criticism is the sloping horizon. Easily fixed in Photoshop and will improve the presentation no end.

  14. Malta Photography Malta Photography Says:

    very interesting shot indeed. The contrasting colors and the blurred background

    really good. Take care of the horizon though.

  15. owen Says:

    I love it and the way it draws you straight into photo

  16. Malcolm Says:

    Very nice.

  19. wanda krack wanda krack Says:

    Wonderful colors and combination of colors! The single flower is perfectly exposed.

  20. ziggy Says:

    Poetry, that’s what this is. thank you for sharing it with us. Personally- the horizon is just fine. I mean the earth is round, right? I like being reminded of that.

  21. Aruna Says:

    Nicely done. Usually a horizon of this sort bothers me, but not in this one. It is more of an art than a photograph, and I like the way it is.
    Well done and congratulations!!

  22. Marie Dunphy Harding Says:

    A striking & imaginative shot!Would make a wonderful painting.

  23. Sue Gagnon Says:

  25. Dianne Says:

  26. kometa Says:

    THANKS…

  27. Pedro Afonso Says:

    WOW WOW WOW. The Colors are amazing. Well done

  28. Hawkgenes Says:

    Very beautiful work.

  29. Allison Says:

    I too like the horizon in the image. Not only does it remind us that we are not perfect, nor are our surroundings, but at the same token, with the way the flower is leaning to the right, it’d look exceptionally off if the horizon were straight. I like it as is. Very beautiful image!

  30. Katherine Lee Strassburg Says:

    I have rarely seen truly level horizons in the real world. The movement of the grass, the one brilliant flower, the colors, all make for a wonderful photo. Well done!

  31. Laurie Laurie Says:

    Very artsy! Simply stunning & stunningly simple!

  32. ralph cabre Says:
