Lovely image Tom - nice use of a short tele to isolate the subject - and render the background a pleasant blur. I like it.

A wonderful vision for this beautifully portrayed flower.
I like how you decided to leave room for the background to bring out the flower in the foreground.
The shades of spring green are also beautiful, so fresh.

Nice placement of the poppy with the yellow hints of other flowers in the background. Just lovely.
