Hi Kiran...

Namaste Kiran

I like the superb sharpness & shallow dof. Perhaps I'd boost contrast slightly. Well done!

I can't help you with the name of the flower I'm afraid, but I like the straight-on composition you've presented. Good DOF blurring the background perfectly. The colors seemed a bit muted to me, so did a quick workshop on it - hope you don't mind. Nice job.

Namaste Kiran!
A nice, soft macro of that flower with no name (sorry, I don't know it either ....)
You managed the difficult colour red here very well! It could be a brighter maybe, or need just a tiny bit of contrast in my view, but I have experienced also the difficulty especially with red parts "bleeding out" and loosing the texture , sharpness and detail.
As it is, a beautiful shot.
Greetings

Hi Kiran I don't know the name of your flower but you have taken a good shot of it here. I have done a WS to brighten it. The sharpness is fine, and it is a pretty flower.
TFS,
Janice

Hi Kiran,
such a lovely shot of this softly rendered red flower. the stamen in yellow indeed a natural beauty to thered petals.
Nicely composed in symmetry to depict the real beauty.
