Shot in my front yard at sunset. I know, i know, it's a flower and will get low votes. But i liked the light, and played with saturation a bit more than i usually do, and i like the way it turned out.

I really appreciate the choice of focus. It makes this a shot that is not your run of the mill flower shot. You should offer this as a print - with such rich colors I could see it in a living room for sure.

Overall seems to be a bit lacking in detail and texture. Perhaps too much noise reduction? Could benefit from some sharpness in the central part of the flower to aid in the focal point.

Focus seems a little soft on the center of the flower.

While the idea is nice, the whole flower is out of focus.

Very shallow dof, barely anything in focus.
