This is lovely and I like the care you took to show the two stages of budding. This one's gonna bloom for weeks! I'm something of two minds on the dark and blurry background, particularly the distracting bit of yellow light on the right side. You might like to experiment with cropping some of the background out, shifting the cropped center more to one side or the other, and framing to fill in some creative, assymetrical and non-distracting way. Not an easy task! And you might not like it when you are finished.
