This was part of a center piece on it's way to the trash, and I thought it needed saving.

Bob: I really like the colors here and the soft petal contours. My inclination would be to crop this tighter and eliminate the dark corners and even the dark anthers on the top and make it a frame filling abstract. Just my 2¢. >=))>

Nice rescue! Bill's suggestion on the crop was brilliant and did wonders for this image that had so much potential. I'm voting for the repost hands down.
