I visited for the butterflies but was fascinated by these little emerging flowers

Neat looking plant for sure. Reminds me of honey locust flowers. Looks like the shutter speed was a bit slow and so I don’t see any crisp areas of focus. The side light brings up nice contour and the colors look rich and there’s good separation in the hues.

The colours and light are really nice but I agree that it could be a bit sharper. The greens in the background compliment the colours of the flowers nicely though.

Hi Steve, I like your composition very much, encompassing the three flowers on a diagonal line. Great oof background displays the color nicely. Focus is really not bad; assuming you were hand holding it would be important to have a high enough shutter speed, about the inverse of your lens mm, to gain crispness in the details. Would be helpful to know what the aperture was too.
