Tough exposure to control. The lens flare is distracting. Maybe a lens hood or shielding of the sun from the lens with your hand with or without a hood may have helped? Shooting at a different time of day (I would guess this photo was shot at mid day), or at an angle away from the sun may have given you more control of the light also. Your primary subject has excessive blown highlights. I still like the idea for it's simplicity.
The sky is a nice blue (where do you live that you don't have clouds!?) and the backlighting on the dandelion gives it a nice effect. I think if you had framed it vertically and shielded the lens to avoid that lens flare, it would have been stronger.
I can't decide if I like the sun and lens flair or if I find them distracting. Personally, I would crop out the little blades or whatever on the right hand side.
This is very nice! The sun positioning in the lower left corner really adds a nice effect, as does the minor lens flares on the diagonal. The clarity here is superb! There is some minor blurred image.. maybe a tree or something in the distance on the right side of the image at the edge, but i didn't see it ;) EXCELLENT!
nice! The lens flare works for you in this case. The tree on the right is annoying on an otherwise great shot. Maybe turning the camera vertical would have worked better, with the whole subject across the frame and the head in the upper left, rather than so central ?
The lens flare bothers me here. I loved this shot until it loaded the whole way (I then saw the bottom corner) The dandelion is in such beautiful contrast to teh sky, it's a shame the flare and stray element on the right are taking my attention away. Try using a lens hood to combat the flare.
