We have two varieties of osteospermum blooming like crazy and I liked how this newbie lined up with the adult white bloom. All comments welcome.>=))>

Very nicely composed Bill! Tells a great story. I love the look to the main subject. Nicely done.

The splay of the petals in the bg flower is perfect for setting off the spiky petals of the yellow one, Bill. A very dynamic image with more contrasty lighting than is usual for you, I think.

Excellent, Bill. Dazzling main subject and an interesting comp with the large oof flower in the bg.

What an awesome flower! The OOF adult is OK for background, but I might consider a separate processing of the two, blurring the adult a bit more, then flattening. Worth looking at anyway.
