End of Summer in the Field

Comment by streetpigeon:
I admire this tender portrait of a plant on the far side of blossoming, no longer flush with the pride of youth. It really pays to notice the entire span of life, and not flinch at decline, which has its own strength and beauty. The background bokeh is lovely. The design of the plant is elegant and the composition is simple and appropriate. The spider web strand is a bonus.

Beautiful colours and lots of crisp detail. I love this as an abstract but would have given it a higher mark if I could have defined an object.

You need a bit of height to the perspective for this to work for me. I know the lines are there but I can't see the important one down the middle.
