Re: I'm so Blue ...
My personal opinion is that the red leaf really distracts from the overall shot. (My brain says: "Is it a Venus Fly-trap about to eat the flowers? Is it a split-open watermelon? Argh! I want to know what it is so that I can stop focusing on it!") The detail on the flowers is quite exquisite as is the delicacy and tonal range of the blue, but the red keeps drawing my eye past the flowers and keeps me from focusing on an otherwise fantastic subject for very long.
There are so many things right in this shot, but that red just bugs me.
Just my 2¢.
