I cant make my mind up about this one I think it is cropped a little to close.

The flower on my screen seems to have an hypnotic style effect in that it overwhelms me visually. Don't know if that makes sense lol.

Like Nik, I would also have liked a small amount of background showing around the edges.

I do like the image and the brilliant colour ( not so my reactalite specs, which turned almost black when the image popped up on screen)

quite glorious...really like what the light is doing here, causing shadowing but not in a distracting way..does need a bit more room. The reason for the hypnotic effect is that the outer areas are in sharper focus that the centre..giving a sense of movement..just my take

I agree with Nik, your crop is too tight as you still appear to have sharpness in those petals, so show them off to there full glory.
