    I like the composition and the feel of it. Not sure if I would sharpen it a little bit more. Still looks good as is !

    I like how you composed this one, colors are very nice. You might try one tilted a bit to the left?

    The composition drew me right in--well done. The dark green bg works beautifully to showcase the flower, stem and leaf. I wish flower and leaf were just a bit sharper. I would clone out the two little hair-like things on the stem where the flower and leaf branch off--but not a bit deal, but because they are light in color they draw my attention. I really like the simplicity and graphics of this image.

    Very nice comp on this one. The colors are great too. The right side of the BG is showing some texture that's missing on the left. I think it would look better if the BG was more even, either a solid color or all textured. Ovidiu's suggestion of rotating it slightly so the flower is pointing more towards the corner might be worth looking into.

    Hi Bob,
    Very good suggestions offered above. I think blurring BG and perhaps rotating would also be my first 2 suggestions.....but you may also explorer a CCW rotation for comparison. One of my favorite flowers.

    One of my favorites, too. I also see a difference between the two sides of the BG and would recommend doing a surface blur to try to even those out a bit more. Lovely composition, Bob. Great way to fill the frame! ;)
