Default Tiny Purple Wildflower

Hello Everyone

This is a picture of a wildflower that was growing in my front yard. The flower was only about one quarter of an inch in diameter. It looks pink further away but up close you can see it is more purple. Tell me what you think about this photo and how you think I could better this technique. Also I didn't crop or edit this picture at all.

Hi,
This is a really great photo! I love it! But, because we are in the critique section... I have to say something to improve
I think that you can crop a little bit at the right side. By doing that, your flower won't be so center and you will take off the empty space at your right.
Everything else is perfect! I like the texture of the flower too
Have a nice day,

This is just stunning! I agree with the other poster. If it was my photo I would make the entire flower, including the buds and leaves, more centered by cropping on the right.

This is my first post on here. I love this site!
