Orange is not one of my favorite colors so I'm wondering if that is effecting my opinion of this image. Since I find there is something not quite right here. I believe its either slightly undexposed or there is a color cast that is washing the whole thing a little to orange. The green should be greener. The focus on the petals is perfect. You have good texture, and the colors are not blinding which orange has a tendancy to do. I can't put my finger on it but technically this should be working perfectly. Maybe It is just because its my least faved color.

The lighting is a bit harsh were you have lost the texture in the yellow petals. However, the image still works reguardless. The center of the flower is in good focus and the bg colors are unique in a lavender tone.
There is surprising amount of depth to the image that causes the flower to move forward toward me. Nice!

What a strange flower. It really does resemble an urchin.
A very good shot technically.

Lovely. I'm guessing an allium of some sort? The lavender and greens are beautiful.
