    Beautiful Patterns of Petals here.. Love the composition. If it is Good if you fill up the LHS part with petals.. and some Experiment with Highlights, Front Petals has little more lights. It only Suggestion. Thanks for sharing.

    Love the soft feel to this one but feel the position of the pedal on the right is overpowering the image.

    Very soft and pretty color, but agree the front petal overpowers the rest. This is where floral macro can be such a challenge (for me).

    Hi Clyde. I love the mix of colors! What makes the image for me is the sharp petal edge in the center as it gives my eye something to lock onto. I would suggest cropping from the right as the vertical bright petal - and the diagonal bright petal are drawing my eye away from the center of the flower. Overall, this is very nicely done!

    Hi Clyde, lovely colors on this rose and I like the softness. Nothing new to add to the good comments already given.
