Feeling purple

Hi, i'm just trying to shoot around when i spotted this. First time thou at shooting flowers. C&C are most welcome. Thanks.

A few info about the shot:
F6.3, 1/15, ISO400

ah ha! i think the 1/15 killed the picture, isn't sharp enough. However I do like the DOF, great to see many of the similar plants echoing in the background.

Some luminous noise can be seen too in the background, well for myself sometimes i go and blur them away since they are already blur

Might want to change the crop abit as the plant seem to become smack right in the middle.

thx for the advice. i too felt that the flower is too middle. prehaps should place more to the side.

hmmz.. nice work.. but u didn't use a tripod rite?

haha. for shooting macro flowers..tripod is a must. cause u would want ur flower to be pinsharp. composition is acceptable..but u might want to lean it more into the picture..and capture more bg too.. the dof is good too.
