Now that you have the focus of the flower sharp, I would crop the right and bottom to make a diagonal. the soft negative space detracts from the focused part of the flower. So does the white on the right side. Just my opinion. Can't wait to see the next one........

Hi Harold,Agree with Richards suggestion regarding the crop. It is due to the OOF area being somewhat distracting to the overall. Sometimes this type of image becomes very subjective...

Great comments !!! Harold there are days you feel there is nothing happening or that all is not clear !! Tomorrow will be a different day :)

[Lance Peters]

Hi Harold - agree with the above comments - but also just personal taste - IMHO.
I like this :)

Interesting idea about the crop. I would not have thought of that.

I guess it is really subjective, because of the two, I really liked the first one better.

Looking forward to the next.
