Post your thoughts please.

Once I got it to fit in my monitor, I liked your composition. Excellent angle, nicely subdued background to complement the colours of the petal.

Just to nit-pick, I believe the petals to the (image) left of the pistil area seem to be in sharpest focus, rather than the pistil or stamens.

Over all, nicely done.

I thought the same thing. focal point is a tad off and the pistil being soft seems distracting.
as stated the colors are great and DOF is nice.

very nice liking the DOF.
only a suggestion for next time but a tad smaller picture would have been great

Thanks for your replies. First, because I'm new, what is DOF?

Second, here is another one: (please forgive me for the big size)

DOF is Depth of field, in short it means how much is in focus
