The fully opened flower was very impressive, but this little bud just before being fully opened was amazing. I really loved the detail of the petals.

This is beautifully done; strong but subtle (hardly makes sense) detailing, bringing a sophisticated color of spring...just too bad about the lower corner.

Fay, good to hear from you. Thanks for the wonderful comments.
Lower corner is a fully bloomed flower just behind it. I cropped the image to reduce it as much as possible.

Looks so delicate and you have caught this quality well, have to agree with Fay re the corner, but could crop this out.
