Untitled

Vibrant rich color tones against a vantage and nicely contrasting b/g.

I have to strongly disagree with previous critics.  I think this is terrible.  Sorry to be blunt, but it needs some help.  First of all, it's not perfectly in focus.  Flowers NEED to be perfectly in focus at least somewhere.  Whether it is the pedals, or the stamen, or whatever.  Your flower is soft all over.  The colors could be great, but they are too cyan.  The subject itself is amazing, if you can re-shoot it, i suggest doing so.  Also, work on your composition.  You shot straight down on this leaving no depth-of-field or any dimension whatsoever.  Try a different angle.  There is a lot of wasted space on the sides as well.  Move in closer to your subject or crop or something.  My last complaint is the grain structure from your digital camera.  Lower your ISO to get a tighter grain that is less distracting and compromising to your subject.

On the positive side, good job making your background fall out of focus.  It should make the subject pop more... if it were in focus, that is.

Sorry for the rough critique... it will make you a stronger photographer.  Go get em.
