Well done getting nearly all of the elements of the image in focus. With a little PS work you might be able to eliminate the OF foreground leaf. I particularly like the composition.

The sharpness of the subject contrasts well against the background texture, and the brilliant colors are just great.

Does not work for me as a horizontal image, this so screams vertical...having said that a real smoking photo. Sharp throughout, very nice
