Wild Geraniums. I like showing flowers in what I call an echo - the subject shown clearly & in focus and then a soft echo in the background made using selective focus for a shallow DOF. Using a nice set of complimentary colors like the magenta and green here helps - as does placing the flowers on an oblique for a more dynamic composition (verticals & horizontals tend to be static & boring). From the camera except I cropped a bit from the left side to remove what seemed to be way too much green - and added my favorite funky border.
