    It looks like the exposure is almost right on. It may be my monitor, but the petal in the center appears to be a little washed out and loses its texture. I looked at it in P.S. and added a little more saturation and darkened just a bit and the texture really jumps out. I would also try a different angle and lose the wilted petals in the upper right.

    This is nice Youngshooter. I like the soft blue colors on the blurred green bg. If it were my pic, i would just bruch over the shot with a shadow brush at a very low setting just to deepen and enhance the image a bit. Nice shot. . .glad to hear you went pro

    Nice composition and colours, what sort of plant is it that has blue stems?

    I particularly like the hole generated in the botom frames by the flowers.
