 Minor color tweaking in chan mixer, levels, and noise ninja. Tried to capture the delicate flower, sun was cloudy for maximum color saturation.
Based on one comment during the voting here, I wonder what others who read this consider merely a 'snapshot'. I would like a dialogue on this: "unfortunately despite the pretty colours this has turned out as snapshot "
But i thank those people who like this image!

There is not enough distinction between the subject and the background or foreground flowers.

Nice focus on the center stamen, but the fall off around it is a bit distracting.
