I agree, it is better balanced in this composition. One thing I might suggest about shooting flowers is to pick off the brown parts before shooting, it makes a much more aesthetically pleasing image. I don't know if you have access to Photoshop but on my flower shots I like to use the clone stamp or spot healing tool to get rid of any blemishes on the leaves or petals. I really like the profile of the fuzzy edges on the flowers in the back too. I might have cropped it even more to make them more prominent, but it's still nice. :)

It IS a lot better. I have to agree about the dead flower comment though; it would look better without them. You also might want to opt for a more sunny day to do serious shooing of flowers. Light adds dimention and luminosity to the semi-transparent petals.

People often say that 'beauty is in the eye of the beholder,' and I say that the most liberating thing about beauty is realizing that you are the beholder. This empowers us to find beauty in places where others have not dared to look, including inside ourselves. -Salma Hayek
