Nice take, Elisabeth. Love those large circles formed in the background from the setting Sun.

I like the flower and the glow bhind the flower but not sure about the glow on the right... on second look though, I like it.

I like the concept here Elisabeth. As shown all of the "action" is going on in the left half of the image. Cropping most of the right side would place even more attention on your subject and setting sun backdrop.

I like this as is Elisabeth. In my humble opinion, I think this is a really well composed and handled shot. Good job.

Very nice photo. Elisabeth I wish you left more space on the top side. Otherwise excellent composition.

Elisabeth: Love the way you lined this up. I wish the upper bud had a touch more headroom but I like the space on the right and don't think I would crop. Well done.>=))>
