I shot this on Lizard Head Pass a few weeks back while shooting wildflowers.

I love the beautiful details in this photo, but I don't see a clear "point of interest". There are lots of distracting elements that draw my eye away from the beautiful plants... and the out of focus foreground is distracting as well. My thought is that a substantial crop could make a big difference here. I might crop off the top - almost two inches - and the bottom - another two inches... for a horizontal pano. There's a pretty leaf at left center that stands out from the others. That would make a lovely point of interest. A secondary point of interest would be the leaf cluster on the right - with the red stem.
I think this is starting to get too confusing to explain! I'll just include a cropped version so you can see what I mean.
Anyway - I love the soft colors and the lovely, soft light. Beautiful!
