What camera did you use?

I believe they would be Chrysanthemum leucanthemum? Better known as a daisy?

Nicely framed. It looks (to my old tired eyes) like the focus went to the left flower, leaving the others a bit soft.

Hm, not even close to enough light. I find early morning, to mid day are the best times to go out and shoot. Give that a try.... and also there's far too much activity in the photo. Pictures should have a main subject that your eye is attracted too. This has one, but then like a couple others.... it's very distracting. Also, I typically like to use a very large apeture to blur out the entire background, keeping only the subject very sharp and clear. It's a very popularly used approach. My fave is f/2.8. Great for macro and portrait shots that don't require much DOF. Anyone, correct me if I"m wrong here..... I'm a newbie too. Still learning myself.
