Gone for the soft approach with this image. Soft focus, colours not too loud. They blend into each other slightly. Almost 'dreamy' in some aspects....maybe!
I like the soft colours. I am sure some people will not like the background saying it distracts from the flower, but that is also the charm of the picture; the subject is not so obvious. The only niggle I have is the dead heads on the stem.
Sorry, but I feel it's way too busy. It does distract from the beautiful flower IMHO. Would like to see you do a photo similar to this without the background tho.Looking forward to that.V
