good perspective, like the leaves are protecting the flower, the colors is so nice to look at, I wonder how long it took you to decide on this angle/perspective

@lissa: Thank you Lissa. This picture was not very easy, the flower was a bit far and there was a lot of wind, the leaves were hidding the flower from time to time.

Olivier, the colors are wonderful, so complementary to one another!

Very fine work. The angle is exceptional, and the green field of color created by the leaves is broken by that bud -- very fine.
