Default Picking Daffodils

I took this last Saturday of my youngest daughter... This is probably one of my favorite images to date (and not just because of the subject), but this image, for the most part, is right out of the camera.

I think I imported it into Lightroom and kicked up the yellows a little bit and then added a slight white vignetting before uploading to Flickr (which got Explored the day after, currently #364).

Click on it and view the larger version -- I'd love any thoughts or critique. Shot with a Canon 50D, 70-200 f/2.8 IS USM around 8:00am.
