Great composition, i'm not too keen on the green halo around the edges of the flower though....maybe the jpg compression is too severe?

Pretty! Some artifacts and haloing around the flower though.

Comment by EL-ROI:
Great color and composition. I think in your processing you have smoothed out the textures a bit too much. Whether through de-noise or whatever process you used. It just doesn't look natural and it is over-processed in that respect. It might be over-sharpened because I can see some digital artifacts around the outlines of the petals, leaves and stem. (perhaps that is due to the processing on the sky.

This almost seems backlit. I love the sharpness. Makes the nature shots really pop when they are tack sharp.

To each his own. I thought the glasses were a perfect touch but for one reason only. You can see the chin of the model and it appears to be bearded. Many may not have noticed this but I did and gray beard = wisdom and age, which is why the glasses worked perfectly. Reminds me of my grandpa working hard. This is what he looked like.
