Wow!  Those are striking colors indeed, and the image has a very
seasonal feel to it.  Well done.

Yep the color combination is attractive - the composition not so much.

Larry, two things jumped out at me on first viewing
- either give the bottom edge room below the bottom of the flower  pot or 
cut more away from the flower  pot to give the image a more finished look
-also I'd have moved the POV a little to the right to eliminate the partial 
view of the plant on that side and include more of the LH arm on the bench.


IMO both of these suggestions would makes the image appear to be less of a 
snapshot  more of a planned shot.

Thanks.  It was a challenging composition as the bench was fairly tight between 
a not as pretty doorway and some less than attractive objects on the other 
side.  If I used a short enough focal length to make the flowers large and 
still show the bench, it was hard to crop out the things I didn't want in the 
photo. If I used a longer focal length, then in order to include the whole 
bench, the flowers were a lot smaller than I wanted.

I suppose I could have moved the table and flowers closer to the bench and 
house.
