HI! When I think "make color the most important element" of the picture - I'm not sure this is what I had in mind. I like that colors, but what about a different composition? Something closer to the first orange bud? Just an idea, but it's your garden - you can always go back and try it. :)
ALREADY!! Wish I could say the same. Getting there. Lots of pretty green. More DOF to bring the (daylily's?) into focus. Can you have your neighbor take down their house next time? (C: Nice little touches of purple in there
This photo is a good entry for the color challenge but I wish it was in sharper focus and had less depth of field. It would be good to shoot with the lens wide open and focus on the orange flowers. You probably want to use a tripod for this but I think it would drastically strengthen the photo. The wire and post in the background really take away from the picture for me. The way it is now I give it a 4.
