### What technical feedback would you like if any? Comments on DOF, detail is light areas. ### What artistic feedback would you like if any? Overall composition ### Any pertinent technical details: Canon EOS R, Canon 100mm F-2.8 Macro, tripod, 1/5 @ F-13 ISO 200, 10 sec delay. Blooms are less than 1/4 of an inch. Do not know what wildflower this is, was part of a package of wildflowers which I planted in a small pot, resulting in small flowers! ![0E4A0969V1](https://images.naturephotographers.network/original/2X/3/33413823fb7030754abd595f3a2e445fcf69fc80.jpeg) ##### **_You may only download this image to demonstrate post-processing techniques._** ---

Saw that I have posted a photo with an obvious fault, forgot to save after cloning out a distraction, but don’t know how to replace this image with the corrected one. ---

Despite the fault, the detail is really nice on the flowers, I might run some NR on the BG. ---

Cool looking flowers, John, and I love the background. They look familiar, but I can’t put my finger on them. I’m debating about the out of focus bloom in the background. I’d probably try to see if I could remove it without making it obvious, but that’s just my taste. If you want to post the fixed image, you can just put it in a response to this one. The responses take full size images. ---

Thanks Dennis, the background is other flowers, though they would work well as the BG. John ---

No problem for me with the comp. I see the cloning fault, which you can fix by simply posting the correction in reply to your initial post. My only nit is the two clipped buds and blossom. I don’t have a problem with the OOF flower in the URC. ---

Hi John Excellent background on this- it really sets off those small flowers nicely. My only suggestion is to frame the picture differently so that one of the 3 in focus flowers is not cut off. Best Kathy ---

John: A little rotation of the camera and a slightly wider angle to get all of the blooms in the frame would suit me better but this is pretty nice as is.\>=))\>
