Lovely quality of light and softness to this image, Ken. The only distraction I see in the picture is the clipped petal.

Regards,

Carol

Ken,

I like the composition and the whites are great as is the center detail. The clip at the top doesn't bother me because the flower isn't really in focus there. My only reservation are the white bg flowers on the viewer's right and I might darken/clone those out in that they seem to break the outline of the subject. It's a good looking image though as posted.

Nicely composed, Ken. I like the angle of the flowers as presented
and the background is handled well, owing to the DOF that you used.
