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 ;=)

It's sweet 'n' simple sir!! Tons of grain exude though leaving a feel of a fake flora...more like a texture thing...perhaps a wee much. Keep'em coming though as we always wanna see more!! 8~P

To see the world in a grain of sand, and heaven in a wildflower, to hold infinity in the palm of your hand, and eternity in an hour. - William Blake
