A closer view of the bunch of wind-blown crocuses in my previous post.

Canon 7D, Tamron 55-200mm lens @ 128mm, 1/200 sec @ f 6.3, ISO 640, hh; some added glow in Perfect Effects.

I agree with Nathan, and I like the diagonal comp as well.

Ian

I do like the composition. However it looks like the lighting is a litter harsh and not very flattering for the petals. Also the focus seem more on the stem and grass rather than the blooms.
