Nice and cute flower,pretty colors too,the photo is nice.

There are two things that really strike me about this photo:

The flower not being fully bloomed- makes this a more unusual flower picture. And you have captured the beauty of something becoming what it can be. :) Nice choice of subject.

Secondly- I really like the lines in the background that are out of focus being so patterned. It isn't distracting from the focal point and it adds alot to the image.

Hey Abby,
I like the image a lot, there is some abstract touch to it, without losing its real feel, which I like,
I also love the shallow depth of field,
Lovely done, (~8

Thanks for sharing

Lovely shot of a Nice coloured flower..

I think this is absolutely gorgeous!!! Great color. Straight to faves, thanks for the great post

The blurred background is okay but I think I would like to see the stem of the flower a bit more,it looks to me like it is just hanging in midair,
