Gerald: My second favorite wildflower next to Texas bluebonnets. Makes me want spring to get here soon. >=))>

The comp and the subject are great. The blue and red colors, if deliberate, are over the top saturated.

I like the composition, Gerald, but the prominence of the rear paintbrush in the image makes me wish it were also in focus. If it wasn't too windy, this might have worked better if you'd taken a second shot with the rear flower in focus and blended the two.

The overall color combination is quite pleasing and I like the composition. Some of the upper paintbrush petals seem oversaturated possibly resulting in the loss of the detail noted in the lower petals.
