This one looks 'Great', in full screen, Randy !
And I'm certainly not negative about this 'pessimistic petals',
but just like Owd Bob, positive feeling !
Wish you a lot of succes!

See that you've deleted one flower and flipped the rest of the image Randy. Good rework as the attention of the viewer is more drawn to the subject now.
Wish you good luck again in the contest.
Regards, Cornelius.

I like it better without the border as I think this version focuses more on the flowers. Very creative work Randy ... best of luck in the contest.

It's a definite yes for me on this version... as Sherree said the focus is totally on the flowers... there's something magical about the number three, works really well here. And... May your luck be good!

I like the stark, washed out feel to this. I think I preferred the overall composition of the first version, and would've preferred it outright had it not been for the slightly tight crop. This one has a cleaner feel to it, but the vertical structure inside the wider frame feels a little awkward. I find myself wanting to turn the flowers to either 10 or 2 o'clock to balnce the out a bit.

If, however, this whole unbalanced, jarring compo was intentional, just ignore the first paragraph. Well, most of it, anyway. ;-)

Please, even if you don't visit my gallery, check out my "Faves".I've left them intact since day "1", and would like it if every image there got the attention they deserved.
