I don't know what camera you used, but if I may make a suggestion: Get as close as you can to the flowers! Fill your lens with them.

I was told this by AndyS and I've had good results.

My wife planted them randomly all over the yard. They are pretty much bloomed out when it’s time for the first mowing.

Each year when they showed their blooms she would be so excited. Sometimes there was still frost on the ground, but they became her sign of brighter days to come.
I see them and remember her.
Happy Valentine's week!
