Backyard flower IV

Please critique.

Okay, the low raters won't comment, sadly...

The capture isn't bad, but the whites are blown out, and because of the harsh lighting, there's little detail on the flower, Arthur

Ok, next time we go out taking pictures it will have to be a cloudy day. Of course I do not know when the next time will be. We should have bought one of those light diffusers at the seminar.

You are right, the lighting was bad. But my wife and freinds like it. I shouldn't have put it up. Thanks for the comments. RICK
