Another beauty, Anita! Yes, I'd love to see the area at the top and bottom of the left side as soft as the middle area of that same side. I'd also think about dabbling a bit of the purple over the top of the brighter yellows so they blend a little better.
This photo looks almost dreamlike. I actually think the purple tones on the left at the top and bottom of the picture actually add to the picture. It reinforces a non centered image which is a no-no most of the time.
I really like the repost. The yellow in the original didn't really bother me too much but once it's removed you end up with a new focus on the flower. What a great bg!
I love the soft colors and dreamy feel of both of them. I for one would love to have seen a bit more room at the top.
