    Hey Adrian,
    Really like how you placed the bud against the other flowers with excellent details throughout! I was debating the LLC but it balnces the LRC somewhat and adds to the overall flower filed IMO.
    Perhaps a touch bright on the yellows....only in the BG.....but an easy fix. Very nicely done!

    Glorious colors and details! Especially like the center with the overlapping petals. I like the centered composition for this round subject. I find the surrounding sunflowers distracting. I'm not good enough at blurring a BG, so I took the liberty of cropping it to give you an idea of another presentation. I also cloned a few of the blemishes on the green areas, used paint brush for a quick smoothing of surrounding yellows, and brightened it a bit with curves and contrast. Hope you don't mind.

    I don't mind, Anita!
    The idea was to show a glimpse of what the bud, wannabe...That's why I left some details in the BG.

    Anita did exactly what I was thinking of doing! I love it like that! I can see this as a giant poster it's so beautiful, Adrian. I also like the original post but I think with the background cleaned up it totally pops!

    I also think a tighter crop is the way to go with this one. The edges of the the BG were distracting, IMO, and need to be cropped or at least cloned away. I like Anita's version but I think I'd like it better if parts of the flower hadn't been cut off.
