Summermorning

Plenty of foreground interest and wonderful color.  Excellent composition.  For my taste, I would have preferred using a hyperfocal f-stop (rather than the f/5.6 you used) to bring the background into focus as well.

The colours are spectacular and I do like the way the flowers fill the gap between the two background land masses.  I would normally agree with J Montgomery about the depth of field, but in this case I think use of  F / 5.6  renders the background nicely out of focus lending a softer and less harsh quality to the light.

Thank you J and Alf for commenting on my photo. It was my intention here to focus on the flowers and keep the background blurred.

good picture, i like it.

Beautiful and colourful summer image.Here the weather is not so nice and the summer is late!Ciao..

Is a so vivid color that delight viewer eyes,nice to see this there,location is super too.

From earlier comments I understand that you wanted to focus on the flowers, so I don't mind the blurred background - it shows enough detail to be clearly recognizeable. However, I find the central flower stalk in the foreground distracting. It is out of focus and somehow my eye gets drawn to it more than to the rest of the flowers (which would have kept the background blurred). I think I would have either used a larger f-stop and focused on the foreground flower, or bent that one stalk to the ground so it's out of the frame during the exposure. The more I think of it the more I think I'd prefer the latter option. But who knows.
