    Hi Mirenchu Like the light and feel lovely tones and mood I'm concern with the bottom part since it doesn't add much? Curious to see how others feel !!!

    btw lots of time I take with me a spray bottle !!!

    I like the focus and angle you used on the front blossom, Mirenchu. Just to see how it looks, I would try adding more room if including the background flowers. It feels crowded to me.

    Hi Lady Mirenchu,
    I like the framing, and I see what you were doing...:) A few points to consider...the background elements are taking away from your main subject...the background is a tad busy. the image is under exposed and you have hot spots in the petals...if you have more room in the original composition, I would use that room to the right side of your frame, because one of the main petals is cut off, also you have too much negative space at the bottom of the composition that does nothing for this beautiful Lady...:) I took the liberty in making a few adjustments in order to illustrate my recommendations...I started by cropping from the bottom and then cloned out and cleaned up the distracting out of focus petals in the background. I adjusted the mid-tones, boosted the saturation and contrast levels. In addition, I cloned out some white-light transit blemishes that were on the petals reflecting light. I selective sharpened the leaves and ran a low level pass of noise reduction the the background...see if this presents best to you...:cool:
