I would post the image here, but it's rather huge and I don't want to make it smaller by uploading it on photobucket etc. so here's the link to the photo in my deviantart gallery;

And of course, since I'm making this post here I am looking forward to getting some critique and comments

The setup/arrangement of the flowers is absolutely stunning. My only criticism is that the flowers perhaps could have been a bit younger? Unless you wanted them to have started browning around the edges a bit...but since I didn't notice that in the description, I'm guessing not. But still, it is very beautiful, even with the aging petals.

The thing is I discovered the flowers on out yard yesterday

I think it's partly aging, partly insects that have gnawed on them a bit. The flower to the left is quite intact though, so I'm happy I found that one. But yeah, I agree that it would of course have been better with flowers that wouldn't have had any damage on them

Oh, I know. I saw the description saying they were fresh from the garden. ^_- But you were asking for some critique, and darn it, that's all that I could find. It actually took me a few minutes to even notice the bug marks, etc, because I had focused in on the one to the left. ^_^

As Kurisutaru just said, I like the colours and the textures in the picture. You did a good job capturing the image!! I even like how it's slightly aging, it gives it a more sophisticated and meaningful feeling, as opposed to being just a picture. I love it!

That's really stunning! I had a look at some of your other photos, and you seem to have a really good eye for composition... such lovely shapes and colours

I love the picture alot. ^^ I love flowers and those are one of my favorite types.

I like the burst of color the lillies has while the background is soft and light. Not all vibrant colors at once. n__n;

Hehee, this makes me want to look at your gallery. xD

-edit- And you have these flowers in your garden? Lucky. My mom only has roses. And so many.. oO;;
