These simple roses can be quite pretty, as is this one. Try cropping the left side to exclude the hole and see if it looks better to you.cool

Steve, the details in the flower's center are terrific.  I like how you've got enough sharp petals to keep this as a flower portrait.  To me, cropping the left edge turns this into much more of an abstract (as in your first post in this series).

I like very much the black angle that enhances the design and balances the composition. I love the photo Steve.
