Always looking for suggestions and comments.

Does the square crop work for you?
Is it too saturated?
How would you improve this picture?

Thanks so much

Hello I like the sharpness of your picture however It looks a bit saturated to my monitor. I also noticed the background to be grainy, is it your intention? If it was my picture, i would crop the negative space on the bottom too. Try experiment with your aperture, open it a bit to see the difference, like f/2.8 to to f/3.

I pretty much agree with everything neoHunter said except I would open it a bit more, at least 2.8 and if you can, further. That will keep my eye from wandering as much and center the attention to the flowers in the foreground.

Thanks guys. I will try again tonight with a wider aperture if the weather holds. I was also afraid it was a little too saturated. I guess for a couple weeks I will have to be real gentle with those sliders until I get my stuff out of storage.

Thanks again.
