Kathy: That color variant that you mention makes the shot for me. I also like the leaf caressing the flower. My only suggestion would be to either put this on a white frame or put a one or two pixel stroke around the image. The edge of the frame gets lost against the black frame and spoils the proportion of the image on the left side especially. On the thumbnail the flower fills the frame nicely but on the presented image it gets a bit lost. >=))>

Striking colors and an unusual stripe on the petal make this one very nice!
