[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
These narcissi, at the side of a farm wall, were very late flowering when everything else seems to be flowering early. However, they were providing lots of interest for the bees and that can only be a good thing!

Hi Bev. This is a great composition and I love the caption.
I can see however that your primary flowers are not quite in focus. I think no amount of sharpening can really compensate for that. The flower at the bottom right looks to me in focus. I presume you moved in too close to the top two flowers. One is of course inclined to get as close as possible to the subject but then misjudges the focusing.
With 6 megapixels to play with on your camera, rather go for sharp focus on your primary subject and then crop seriously unless of course you have a macro lens.
Regards, Irmgard
