Wow Sam, blue is a rare color to find in nature (at least around here!). The color is quite intense. The blossom itself appears like a star...I also like the composition, plenty of room for icons :) The focus is quite intent and brings that flower in the foreground right to the viewers eye. Well done my friend ;=)
