Focus on the center piece is just wonderful. Love the deep reds and greens in this too

Very nice composition, I love it. The crop on the left side is a bit tight, otherwise good job ;)

Cool flower, why don't you treat us to a larger view of your neighbor's (or yours for that matter) garden if it's filled with these and other things we don't normally see. Back to your shot. I think the color is great and the focus on the middle of the flower is spot on. I would maybe think about getting rid of the red in the upper right, it's distracting me a little.

Surely a painting. The colours mimic acrylic paints on a white backing. Nice work.
