Lou,
These flowers are so beautiful, the color is gorgeous. I wonder what it would have looked like if you would have made the aperature alot larger (smaller number)? I wonder if it would have brought out more of the flowers and not so much the grass. Just a suggestion. You have that wonderful macro lens that really makes it easy to get a great DOF. You are always able to get such a sharp focused picture for which I am jealous. :) Nice shot lou
