Lovely. I like everything about this image. Without the leaf at the bottom the image would have been even better, but it is still not a major distraction. The ants add to the image. (Not sure about the saturation though, I am using an uncalibrated monitor...)
TFS. Could you provide a little info about the plants in your posts please?

Thanks Abhishek. I agree with your comments about the leaves... the image would have been lot better without it but this did not strike me while I was shooting :( anyways, I will keep this in mind.

I agree with Abhishek. I think some more space at the bottom and less at the top would have been better. Or less, zooming in a bit more with less space at the top would look even better. Some more depth of field would have been good too. Thanks for sharing.

The combination of red and yellow flowers look nice. The vertical composition works well here. If it was not possible to remove the leaf, you could have included it with a bit more space at the bottom than at the top. Thanks for sharing.

Nice image and good colors. The reds look lovely. Agree about the saturation. You could probably tone it down a bit. Thanks for sharing.
