Default Flower buds

Hi Everyone!

Hope I posted this in the right forum... So took my XSi out today while it was raining to see if I could find some interesting shots. This was one I liked quite a bit.

Blooming in the rain

I did a bit of editing in Aperture. Just touched up the color a bit. Let me know what you think

That stick in the middle is really distracting, it "steals the show" from the flowers and droplets of water

ditto...

i like the comp overall, but would have moved over a bit, or cropped out the left as the negative space there doesnt work on this

nice colors tho and i bet you got soaked lying on the ground to get that... nice capture overall
