A few images from my visit to Hunter Valley Gardens last weekend. CLick a pic for a larger version.

Hi Peter,
#1 - at this size it looks super-over-sharpened and a bit washed out and on large size - actually large I think it comes off a lot better. Would look fantastic printed A4. All you need is one orange flower at the bottom right to balance it out...

#2 very beautiful soft pastel yellows

#3 is a great riot of colour... those blues tending to purple and the pink / purple are really hard to get right. There is a slightly blown flower in the foreground (if u filled with yellow no-one would notice?) and the background being blue /purple shade is a distraction - i tried it scrolling down and if you cut just to the top of the first red flower I think.

Peter, the first and the last are gorgeous images. Very nice.

I am not a big fan of traditional flower images
However these are nice shots

#1 would make a delightful pattern for a tissue box. I am saying this in the very nicest of ways.  PS The others are a little like sunsets....they have to have something that really sets them apart from the runofthemill stuff. These don't quite get that far in my opinion, but flower lovers will like them.

Matt,

Peter actually made that image in his bathroom, and yes, it is a tissue box.

Vibrant colour Peter but, as Matt so diplomatically put it, nothing really to capture the eye and /or imaginations as is normal fare in your images.
cheers
