Your opinion? Wild flower

At this time in Hokkaido, Japan, it is start of Summer season. Insects and spiders still hard to come by. I found this tiny little flower and like simple combinations of colors.

Pretty colors, your DOF is very short, your focus is just at the start of the petals ,which gives an impression of blur

Hi jhanx, thanks for your picture! Colors looks great but your focus is a little bit distracting. Would be better to increase the DOF to get petals which are also sharp at the end.

Hi All!

Thanks for your comment about the focus! it is already at f16 and hand held. Yup i missed focus, and should have focused on the tip of the petals About the center part of the flower, focus stacking is the only way to solve it, i believe
Someday, I will buy focus rail and tripod that i can tilt and point lower near ground,

This is not bad jhanx , but there is not all flower in focus, probably you could improve this by having a tripod and focus rail, as been mentioned already

Hello, i'm New in the world of macro but I'll try to explain my feelings about this pic. The yellow is not Sharp (it can be that you wanted this). For me the colours aren't bright enough. But then again i'm not à pro.

I don't think someone on this site is pro, there are just photographers with more experience in my view, apart from our forum Mentors, and others. But it's always good to have different opinions and critics.

Thank you for your comments! The yellow part is un-intended. As I explained above, I believe it can only be solved using focus stacking. or maybe I should have shot a little farther, and cropped the image in post.
About "colours aren't bright," do you mean you like more luminance on the purple part?

The image is not really in focus because of your f stop, if you'd bring it to f/15-22 , I'm pretty sure you could achieve more details and more in focus.
