Default Handful of flowers

I took this today of a bunch of flowers my daughter picked.

Should I have gone for a wider shot or is this okay?

Maybe, a little wider, just to avoid cutting off part of the flower. Very sweet shot, though.

I'd say a bit wider too. You might want to look at the color balance, too. Her hand has a bit of a greenish tint on my monitor.

Nice concept, try it with a macro wide angle lens, and the photo, no doubt will turn out amazing,
Good work though

Thanks, when funds are available I definitely plan on picking up some more lenses. Right now I have to work with what I have which are an 18-55 and a 55-200. When working in the back yard I typically have the 55-200 because I like letting the kids play and capturing them when they don't expect it.
