Albert: Love the light you have here and the center details of this fading flower. For some reason the broken petal makes this more poignant for me. Many kudos! >=))>

The nice, uneven backlight makes this an evocative image, Albert. Well done.

Most excellently lit and composed, Albert ! Love the silk-like textures of the petals and their flow from that wonderfully chaotic centre. Beautiful !!

Albert, the glow in the center of the flower is beautiful. I love the light changing in all sides.
Take care.
