I though the mix of white and pink was pretty although pink is more the background than the primary color, but still, pink is pretty present on this picture. The white flower has a fragile look.

Sharpened. Lighting adjusted.
That's all.

HI from the C Club,

You asked for an in depth comment on your shot.

This is a really pretty picture and I like the fact that you have several pink shades going on in the background.

Now to the nitty gritty, I am afraid you shot is really out of focus. When eyeing up a subject, find one that you really like then you can move your little adjuster to just focus on that and the rest of it will be blurry, or you can have the whole lot in in focus.

Your ISO is fairly high too in this shot, try turning it down to 100 when taking shots outside as they will not get any grain, which I can see in your whites. A tripod could help with camera shake and make your shots extra sharp and clean.

In post processing, there is not a lot that you could have done with this shot, a little more contrast would ha e give you more depth of feeling to this shot.

Keep trying, you have an eye for it.

I appreciate this idea of the subject of pink as background.

An interesting composition. However, the pink appears to be only a background color and the white petals on the left and right sides draw my attention too much for this to be an effective composition for me.
