nice exposure...colors are a bit too muted, i'm having a little trouble figuring out what colors are complementary here. focus is pretty good, and i would have used a black or white background to create more contrast between the flower and the background...4

Comment by Journey:
This image is troublesome to me and i'll tell you why. These colors here clash, or in any case aren't particularly pleasing to my eye. And yet, i bet, that in reality this flower is just beautiful as i have never seen a flower that is not beautiful in its own way of perfection. The yellow and the mauve of the center petals are beautiful, the rest reads as 'too busy' for me. Maybe what accounts for my discomfort is that it was taken out of context and the overall look isn't softened by quiet leaves. The dof on the top mauve petals adds to this feeling of busy-ness. 7

It's like a zoo in a flower! I wish I could see the whole flower, though.
