I think the central composition here is a little bit boring. If it was closer cropped, it would make more of the explosion of petals, but all the busy green background diminishes that effect.
I did yellow flower on green background too for my shot. Just different flower. lol. I like the yellow on green. I think it makes the subject really stand out from the background. The angle and framing/cropping are ok. The border looks good with the shot as well. Very nice focus and clarity. I like the detail in the center of the dandilion. ~Heather~
Very simple but very effective at the same time. The shallow DOF makes your flower stand out even more. The only thing which bothers me a little is that your flower is so centered.
excellent color and detail... I believe the centered composition here could be improved with a square crop or by moving the subject off center just a bit :) - setzler
Very nice portrayal of colors and nicely focused. To me the DOF makes this dandilion look extremely tall or like the blossom is sitting on a glass over the lawn. Messes up my depth perception. I know that some have long stems...but maybe if this picture showed part of the stem in focus, it would make it look more in porportion.
