Nothing special...just a very pretty tree along a lake in Southern California. Little cloning to even out the background and usual PS tools for levels, etc.

simple, but nice. I tend to like photos like this....the sun lit your subject just perfectly.....great details and colors.....the background is nice too---not too sharp, and just blurry enough to add to the photo...
Nice vibrant red of the 'flowers' with good overall colors throughout. Nice background, great use of DOF, good composition, and nicely sharp. I dont see much there that I would change.
At first glance, I thought the image was pretty good. But upon further examination decided that I like the composition as a whole. I think the border really helps this image. It makes the blooms pop a little more and adds a nice edge to diffused background. The dimensions make this seem like a really nice bookmark.
Nice use of a different angle for the buttons (hanging), good dof (enough to tell what it is but not distracting - looks like an impressionistic painting). I'd like a bit more light on the red to make them pop a bit - handheld light since it's hard to control the sun ;) The border doesn't add in my opinion as I can't look at the shot without noticing it - turning it into an element and pulling my eye away from your main subject.
