Lovely flowers Else, nice and sharp. The background looks a little busy and is slightly distracting, overpowering the flowers. Perhaps a wider aperture to blur the background some more and create some nice bokeh. Also looks a little oversaturated but could be my ole eyes Still a nice image

Hi Maureen .. I did tone it down but didn't try to blur the background .. find it difficult to do some of that really close work ..
Cheers
