Pow is right. Your photo jumps out at me. I love it. The flower seems disconnected to the background did you move it from another picture? Or what did you use to take it and did you do any post work?

Thank you very much. This photograph is taken with a Fuji S9000. No post production on it at all.

Beautiful, vibrant colors!! They'd really stand out with a darker background though.

I like the flower, sharpness, DOF and what not - but the upper left quadrant of the flower has lost some of its detail in the saturation. Not a huge flaw or anything - but something to look at. The other petals almost all have wonderful texture in them - is there a way for you to desaturate it a tad till the detail comes back? A square crop might work well here too.

All in all, good shot.
