This is a similar picture to the one I posted before but it is a different shot and suggested changes were made from the earlier shot.
Is this an improvement? I think so but other input welcomed.

Canon Rebel T1i. 90mm macro lens. F/22 fpr 1/8 sec. ISO 100.

This is excellent, Carolyn. I love the image, and I think it's an improvement over the first one. The very simple comp is really nice, and the repetition is just right. An odd number of subjects generally works best - so five blooms is just right. Beautiful colors, too!

Sweet. Prefer this one more than the Floral post but they are different composition of course.

Carolyn you are a perfectionist. Well thought out compositions, good light and a very good feeling for color.
I like this image more than your previous post. It is pure and lovely.
