Nice burst of color. The petals look so velvety soft they make me want to touch them.

Lovely burst of colour:-)

Thanks for the "Lovely burst of color" comment, I had this printed on metallic paper and wow did the colors pop.

very beautiful. I always wondered what they were called. I love all the different angles the flowers appear in.

I like all the angles also as it really highlights each petal and thanks for the kind "very beautiful" comment.

This should be on canvas. I do that to some of my nature pics, have them put on canvas. I love trumpet vines, the flower are so large and so showy!

A wonderful suggestion - I had this printed in metallic for my parents 66th wedding anniversary. It came out so very sharp etc...

Wonderful.....love this colour....This is a real beauty Ernesto..k VOTED
