Wonderful placement of subjects within the frame! The flower in the foreground *INSTANTLY* captures my attention and like a Greeter announces and invites me to come on into the meadow. My vision then travels beyond to the backdrop where I see a field of flowers. The bright and bold yellow-orange hues are perfectly captured. This invokes the feel of a bright, breezy and carefree spring day. Hope to see this in the top 5 - 10.
