Good composition, DOF, & soft color. Well done. Sometimes the presence of a flaw serves to intensify the harmony of the comp & I'm curious what the effect would be to clone out the little green-white intruder in the lower left edge.

Simple. Lovely. Wonderful lighting. Excellent DOF, and great composition - even the background flowers add to the coordination of the image.

Made me smile. Really nice the way you've softened the color - adds the warmth, the delicateness of the flower and the environment. Well done.

Pink whispers in the wind,
it is time to awake.
Petals unfurl
touched by the Spring Sun.

I love the soft, pastel hues. The pastel hues of the flowers speak so eloquently that Spring is here.
