I love the subject and the soft light! But I wonder about putting the flower right in the middle: the space on the right does not seem useful to me.

To me the left and right sides represent the past and future. The darkness on the right also just embodies the vastness of time. It seems about right to me. But I can't willingly abandon that model easily either.

Charles: I find it interesting that the center still looks pretty vibrant while the petals are degenerating. Fine contrast. >=))>
