hey, pretty nice shot. I like how the center of those "flowers" are the only point with noticeable color to catch your eye.

You had brought the flowers so outstanding visible against the dark-green
background !
brilliant !!

I like the softness. Well done :-)

Botanists call them ADAs (Another Damn Aster) because they belong to the Aster family (like daisies and sunflowers) and there's hundreds of members of that family and many of them look very similar. Try daisy fleabane or small white aster? Your mom's probably right, but you are too, definitely!
