I disagree with Ecke. The color of the flowers is unusual, and contrasts nicely with the background. The focus is spot-on and the detail in the flowers is great. I note in the EXIF that you used f/6.7, which gave you just enough DOF for the flowers while still blurring the background. I like it a lot.
I also note that you dusted off the istD for the shot!
