Pretty Flower

I was doing a shoot this past weekend and found this beautiful wild flower. Let me know what you think.

I do like the colors of that flower, would be neat to shoot one of those. I don't think your composition works well as is. They are pretty though, definitely worth shooting again.

Love the colours, but I do agree with Ernicus, the composition doesn't work for me. The OOF flower in the background detracts from the beautiful, in focus, one in the front. I would try and isolate one flower so that there are no background distractions, because the red on the green OOF background works better. My 0.02¢ FWIW.

Well its a nice specimen of Indian Blanket for being wild. The picture is nice but a slightly higher angle might have been better.

Thanks for the feedback! I'll work on my composition next time. I really appreciate the comments.

Well, for me the composition works. The background/OOF flower adds just a little interest to the background, yet helps the viewer stay focused on the subject flower.

I felt this way when I composed this picture with that very technique in mind.
