I like the sense of motion with your comp and with the BG Ian. An unconventional comp that works well here.

Lovely, although I think I would prefer the blossom centered. Cropping about the two OOF buds would just about do it. Great control of whites and a nicely blurred background.

I like the comp and the cosmos, and the bg is super nice, Ian.

Ian: I really like shots taken in full sun and the challenge of shooting in uneven/harsh light. This is just awesome IMO. The light on the center and the shadow play on the petals are delightful. 2+ thumbs up! >=))>

Ian - Very intriguing composition - looks like a flood light positioned for a game or a pedestal fan. I like the textured background as well.
A slightly less incline might also work well here.

Whites are handled nicely, pleasing background, and it has good detail. The flower facing down is a little awkward to view. I keep tilting my head to see if it would work as a vertical.

Another unique and compelling comp, Ian. I don't know how you continue to come up with these? Super work, as usual.
