I like it Shaun, perhaps some from the top which would put the larger poppy on a third(ish) but still keep the OOF poppies behind...?

I like it Shaun but agree with Phil's comments regarding cropping a bit from the top. I don't know if it is just me but the colours seem a touch 'cold' especially given that it was taken in late evening light. Perhaps warm it up a touch?

Hi Phil and Robert have tweaked it a bit as suggested made a diference I think

I think it could go just a little more, maybe just above the OOF poppy above the large one on the RHS? I would also warm the colours a little as the blue hues from the darker end of the day dull the image slightly.

Kind regards,
