You found a beauty, Bob! Beautiful symmetry between the flower, stem and buds. Everything flows nicely and drives the eye right up to the blossom. You've got one little white spot directly above the left bud - might clone that out. Everything else looks awesome! Beautiful job on the comp and crop.

I'd say you succeeded! Great colors and the comp is perfect!

Just lovely! This is a fantastic shade of blue, and the black bg makes it stand out. Great flow.

I too love the flow. Has an Asian mood to it. very nice. I don't know if I would keep the dark bud that is on the right. I don't think the image needs it, and it is rather tight to the main stem.

Looks great Bob !! Can't think of a better bg for this one !! Just as presented for me !!!
