Lovely bloom, Bob, and I do like the composition. Maybe just a touch brighter?

Like it. You captured the personality of this pansy perfectly.

These make neat pictures with their "faces". This is a fine look and your crop show of the flower well. I could also see getting lower for more of a straight on view and agree with Dennis that this could be a bit brighter, which would show more detail in the deep purples.

Just the right amount of leafage to set off a lovely flower, Bob. Very nicely composed all round ( also feel maybe the whites might come up a touch ? )

Very nice look at this flower! I prefer the second version because the purple part of the flower shows more detail and is a more beautiful shade of purple.

I like the brighter version too. The whites are not blown out and the darker middle has more detail. The square crop was also a good choice. Nice shot!

I do like the repost better, Bob. Just the right amount of brightness IMO.
