I really like the idea of this shot, the translucency of the petals that are in direct line of the sun is great. I think the lower flowers are a bit dark for me.

Nice treatment on this image, but the range in values is a too much... underexposed and blown out. There are some nicely exposed daisy's in the middle of the photo which describes their shapes and qualities well. This is a tricky shot, but I would generally steer you away from using the sun to blow out portions of the image. I don't even know what to recommend to help with the up front issues in the image - graduatied neutral density filter maybe?

It's a good try but I agree with the joojo that the sun is just too bright.
I think it may have been possible to get the sun exactly behind the thickest (and darkest) part of the flower which would have helped a little with the exposure. You would still get the translucency but not the flare.
If you have the opportunity - try again and move around a little until the flare from the sun is reduced - also try the same with the flash switched on.

Really amazing treatment. Who would have thought a purple hue could work so well?? You did, obviously. :) And you've got this magic photo to show for it.

Excellent image.
