This time i decided to photograph something inside the house. Our cactus plant is flowering with tiny blossoms. Again, as always, I truly value your suggestions, and I thank you so much for all the time you spend on helping me to improve my work.

Very nicely done Lynn, I like it

The shot may benefit from a noise reduction pass on the background

I like it Lynn. Comp looks very nice. If you have more "real estate" on the right, you see how it looks with a little more room for the needles on the right ~ Ron

Thanks, Tim. I often seem to have trouble with noise in my photos. I tried to reduce the noise a little, and I think the photo has updated. Again, so many thanks!

Thanks, Ron. Perhaps I should get rid of the border in the frame to make a little more room. I appreciate your suggestion.

This is very nice Lynn. You might want to make the right side darker. I love the patterns in the thorns

I've never been able to capture a decent cactus pic. You've easily topped all my efforts with this one.

The comp is nice on this. I'd suggest putting your camera on a tripod and lowering the shutter speed. Let it take as long of an exposure as it needs, and it will clean up all the noise nicely and you should get crisper details to boot.

Very nice image, Lynn and I agree with the good suggestions already made.
PS If you don't have the possibility to add the frame outside your image just forget about it.
