 OK, the daisies are really mums and they are dyed and smell...well not good. The Delphinium is about the bluest flower I could find. But there are hints of purple in the delphinium and yellow in the mums so you really get a double treat...unless of course I need to recalibrate again.

Good subjext and composition, a little more saturation would have made them 'pop' even more.

Good use of complimentary colors. The flowers are a bit bunched up which I hoped they wouldn't be. Good luck. 6

Nice choice of flowers too use. Love the darkness about this overall. Very unperfectly mixture of petal shapes.

looks kind of like mine :P think you may have brightened the blue a bit and bring out more orange in the other one to make this stand out more.. good angle tho.. 6
