Terrific frame filling composition. You did a good job controlling the whites with the lighting you had. Nice work.

Patricia:
The anthers look like they are churning in a sea of milk. Perfect exposure on the soft white petals. Good as presented but as an alternative you may want to consider cropping the right to exclude the dim triangular area just about the mid point and fill in or open up the LLC.

Patricia - Very nice - looks like flowing milk the flow broken by the saffron strands.
I suggest filling some white in that triangle Gary alludes to and also the lower left corner. Will increase the impact in my opinion that way.
