This is a good scene, but it seems somewhat blurred. The flowers are not in focus, nor is the grass.
Unless you meant it to be like this. Which I highly doubt.
What you should do -if your camera has the option -is choose something or other (the option is different on most cameras, and I can't remember what it's called; sorry]; it would focus on the foreground in your picture -in this case, the pretty daises and some of the grass -and wouls leave the background blurred. It adds to the effect. :)

Hmm yes the flowers are blurry, it would have been really effective if the flowers were really sharp and the rgass was not so, but never mind :)

Becuase of the blurriness it isn't a very strong picture. But hey - how did you like England?? Did you take any more photos of this tour - must have been rgeat to travel around!!!!

keep snapping those photos!

Yeah, since the main object in this picture is the flowers, you want them to be more sharp and centered. Also the white things in the background are districations, but you could photoshop that out no problem if you have it! :D

Good job!

Most pictures need some sort of focus point, that's what draws people to them.
This photo has a great quality of color in it which is appealing and there's lots you could do with it but it doesn't have that focal point.
You just need to focus your camera on an object. I don't think that object HAS to be the flowers, I think if you focused on the grass in the front the picture could be equally as appealing if you focused on just one of the flowers.
I’d run outside to show you an example of what I mean but there’s snow on the ground ha-ha.
Just play around with it. Try focusing on different objects. You’ll get a hang of it.
About the white thing in the background, it is distracting but if you had more showing it wouldn't look like a mistake it would look like it belonged and would flow with the rest of the photo, I think.
