 This is my first DPChallenge entry. Thanks Rikki for introducing me to this site. I've learned a lot so far. And thanks hardkrash for the flowers. You always know how to brighten up a bad day.

I adjusted the brightness/contrast and the hue/saturation to make the flowers more vibrant. Cropped it a little on the right and bottom. That's about it.

The image looks a little hot (direct flashish) I'd suggest using a defuser of some sort on the flash, multiple flashes if you can or, in the case of an on-camera flash (depending on the camera you have), a piece of printer paper in front of the flash to defuse it. A defuser(s) will provide a softer light and bring out more tones. Good framing.
