Take Flight

Comment by Techo:
A beautiful capture. From the purple flowers, green stems, to the golden background, the colors work wonderfully well together. Great job with the composition , DOF and focus, getting those two buds perfectly sharp like that with a nice blur of the background and foreground.

Comment by ArpeggioAngel:
Good composition with this - the square crop with the thistle off center works really well.

Comment by Prism:
This is gorgeous! The only improvement I might suggest would be to tone down the clouds at the horizon on the lower left. If you use a raster layer in overlay mode with a 50% grey fill and then use a black brush at about 25% opacity to paint on that layer, you can spot edit the brightest parts and add just a little more detail in to those areas of the clouds.

And they're crazy about you :-) This is super-sharp and crisp, excellent work. I'd love to see you clone out the little BG bud in left center, which is an eyetrap for me.
