I had to repair some areas on the petals due to insect damage. I cloned out most of the distracting bg in the right side of the photo. The leaf in the upper right is some what distracting to me, but I felt cloning it out would add too much negative space. Any c/c's are welcomed. Thanks for viewing.

Good repair work. Your larger image is the same size as your smaller.

Floyd - Another new name I learnt for Datura flower. You did well to leave the leaf instead of cloning it out. Its not distracting and in fact helping the composition avoid a total negative space.

No suggestions, works well as presented for me. Good work showing the great textures in the petals.

Now, this looks like the Datura that I'm familiar with.

Fine composition and beautiful light, Floyd.

Best,
Carol

You were right in your opinion not to clone out the leaf due to the reason you mentioned. Like it a lot.
