Hi Monoscopic,
I think your colours are astondingly vivid, and this would make for a good subject. However, I find the backgound a little distracting even though it is out of focus. I would have maybe tried to isolate one or two of the flower heads to simplify the composition and focus the viewers eye more. Hope this helps.

Mate, good photo. I agree with Mrlee though. The background is too busy, it distracts from the amazing colours. Good effort though capturing the vibrant colours

Welcome to the forums! (I'm new too but you didn't hear that from me. >.>)

Great colors with the photo ! The background is a bit busy, but defenitely adds to the depth of field. ^.^
