I line the shot with a different point of view great color!

Nice shot. I decided to play with it in monochrome but it doesn't work well.

I find macro photography so fascinating and in this case, the photographer as well. It's always an adventure to see things this close and as the flowers are in their different stages. I like the colors, the focal point and silly as this may sound, I always enjoy being about to witness pollen on the pedals. Nice capture!

Thanks for your comments, Sherwood, Brian and Dave...'appreciate it very much.

Nice try, Brian...This is one instance I didn't missed anything when trying to think of B/W conversion.

This is my edit...removing the green instead of cropping it, did it work better now or I still have to crop?

[Stagecoach]

Yes it works Izzie and you have done a good job of removing the green, but that did not really worry me. I think you have more than one option here and it comes down to personal choice, this is the one I would buy

Another choice...and the subject nicely shown. Thanks, Grahame...

In my opinion removing the green strengthened the image. And yes, it's still abstracty (in my opinion) and that's a good thing

Hi Izzie, I think the image looks much better now but I think it looks even better still with Grahame's crop

[IzzieK]

Thanks, Jack and David...I thought so too...different point of view too. Grahame made it more on the rule of third too, so it is stronger...
