Can you please tell me why did you say this? is there any technical issue while taking the image?

I need all of your tips! :)

I just don't find the composition interesting. There is too much DOF for me. I think the background is too blurry. The flower is facing the wrong way and maybe even needs some company. The flower all alone and one off in the distance just looks odd. I am not sure what you were trying to convey with your photo.

The stone or gravel is nice and has lots of color. The flowers themselves may be very beautiful in their element but they look out of their element.

Where are they leading too? Why are they separated? Who put them there and why?

There is no story to this photo that I can understand.

My thoughts are these... This shot suffers from two things. One, a lack of composition. The subject is too centered in the frame and the shot has no overall dynamic; no "feel". The eye-level perspective gives the shot a little interest but it's not enough to elevate anything. Problem two is what appears to me to be a depth-of-field issue in that only the barest fraction of the subject is clearly in focus. Combine that with the fact the background is just busy enough to distract my attention and the combination has my eye wandering all over the shot. The subject simply isn't engaging me or even anchoring the shot.

As a last little nit-pick... I'm confused by your title as well because it appears to me the subject is anything BUT "solitary" in this shot. Maybe I'm not understanding what you meant, however...

1. Flower facing out of the frame.
2. Alignment of the flower right behind it.
3. Title of the photograph is confusing. It's not solitary and not sure what the lover part is.
4. Centered, needs to be offset.
5. I would have liked the flower rotated a bit towards the camera.

I like the color in the photo.
