Exquisite shot. Maybe a deeper field of focus would be good - f/2.8 is a very wide aperture for a shot like this!

Hey Arman,
IMO, an aperture setting of f/2.8 for macro photography of flowers is best for selective focusing (just like what you achieved on the stamens/pistils) coupled with careful selection of background to achieve a smooth and/or colorful bokeh. I use a higher aperture setting if I want to achieve a better DOF...Doing so in this instance would also feature the paper-like quality and texture of the petals. (And you ask what the hell is Danilo blabbering about. LOL). Ingatz...Danilo
