Hi Ed,You picked an neat subject with interesting manipulation. I'm most attracted to the flower which has nice water droplets and is mostly sharp. In this case I would have preferred a sharper stem or a shorter one due to it's competition with the flower head. Part of the competition is due to it being out of focus and dominant. The backround is nicely muted but I would eliminate the line to the right of the flower head.
Ed, I think this is great! It almost has a grunge look to it! Very nicely done. I do agree w/ Dave regarding the stem.
I can see where Dave's heading with the stem. Makes sense. Great to see so much excellent work in OOTB. Thanks for sharing Ed. :) I'd crop about half from the RHS negative space. :)
