This is a really beautiful flower, and a pretty shot. I hope you don't mind if I make a suggestion that might enhance the image.

One of the things I notice about the image is that the subject (the flower) is centered. While this makes it much easier to focus an image, it generally isn't the best for presentation. You might consider using something known as the "rule of thirds" for this image. Basically, you imagine a tic-tac-toe like grid on the image, and put the subject at one of the lines, or even better at an intersection. This type of presentation helps draw a viewer's eye into the image. You can see some examples, and read more about the rule of thirds at the following website: [link]

More specifically, you might consider cropping the image into a verticle shot with the flower making up the bottom right of the image, and the most prominent leaves making up the left border of the image.

Like I said, I love the flower, and I think you've done good here, I just make the suggestion so that maybe the image can become even better.

Keep up the good work.
