In the words of Chris Martin:

Come on, oh, my star is fading
And I swerve out of control
If I, if I’d only waited
I’d not be stuck here in this hole
Come here, oh, my star is fading
And I swerve out of control
And I swear I waited and waited
I’ve got to get out of this hole

But time is on your side
It's on your side now
Not pushing you down and all around
It’s no cause for concern...

mmmm I approve :D The lack of brightness gives it an odd clarity... and it brings out the white of the flowers. Awesomeness

Personally, I'd prefer this with either more saturation or more contrast (not both though). I think the best choice would be to add saturation. It would still give you the lighting you were going for and make the image look less washed out. Love the poem =)

It doesn't appear washed out to me...what specifically looks off? I appreciate the remark and what it to appear the best way possible, so thanks.
