70-200 lens on tripod. Cropped square to get rid of some distracting foreground stems. Manually focussed on the orange flower in Liveview IIRC and chose f5.6 to get depth to that flower and throw the rest out of focus. Finally a minor tweak to levels/ curves to boost contrast and saturation and sharpened. Hope that helps

Thank you all for your appreciation and comments!
