I like the way the splashes of color blend into the area beyond the depth of field.

Sergio, Love the comp. Love the purple in front of the orange flowers!!! IMO, maybe just a tad more level adjust or something to make it pop even more.

I like how you filled the frame with the lupine and how it contrasts against the sea of orange blossoms in the background. Lupine is wonderfully crisp and detailed. Color looks great. If I were to make any suggestion, it would be to consider 'burning in' the leaves in the lower right corner--making them a bit darker would allow the lupin to pop without those leaves pulling at the eye. Don't use the burn tool, though--it's not the best tool in the toolbox, IMO.

Jason, Todd, and Barbara, thanks for taking the time to look and comment. Glad you all like the shot. Good idea about burning in the leaves in the lower right. I'll play with it and see what I can do. Thanks for the suggestion.
