the background looks good, but i see you tried to use fill flash to lighten the flowers, i dont think you had the flowers in focus though, so it looks a bit odd, the colors are very rich and vibrant though, so good job

Such an amazing place and a wonderful photo of it.

A beautiful place and good idea but you need to work on the details to go all the way. The foreground cactus is to dominating in the image. It overshadows the beautiful backdrop. Try to make your foreground object more subtle. The lighting on the catus is also unatural, try using an lightweight protable reflector you can get a more naturally balanced light on your foreground subjects.

not sure about the focus on this one

well seen but I think the flash over emphasizes the cactus barbs, taking away from the beauty of the canyon.

nicely composed, but the cacti seems too well lit

would have like this better if the bottom flower was cropped out - great colors

Fill flash excessive IMO (particulary with the shadow just beyond), the contrats is too strong and the color balance unnatural between the cold foreground and warm background.

Good use of flashwork...but that large black triangle drags this image down.
