Congratulations. I love the juxtaposition of something that needs to have hot weather to bloom against the coolness of the snow in the background.
Thank you AuntieM I appreciate your comments very much. That's exactly what caught my eye.

AT LEAST the bronze!!! Personally I think the fix was in, and you should have won! No doubt the East German judge marked you down...

Congratulations. Beautiful shot. The only thing I would have done different is place the bloom a little to the left and included more of the leaves towards towards the bottom. Once again a beautiful shot. Placing high or winning a photo competition is always a great feeling. Your first place is coming.
Thank you I appreciate your kind comments very much. I agree with what you say however, the flower was in a very large plant pot in a car park with cars and lampposts aplenty. The crop was the only way I could get the shot I wanted to remove the obstacles. My post processing knowledge is very limited.
