That's a nice color combination with greyscale, Brandon.
Centering the flower is not the best, though.
Your eyes are drawn to all four sides automatically as soon as you've seen the flower.
If you crop the Top and Left borders evenly, and fairly close to the extended petals, you'll see how the flower regains dominance of the overall picture.

Very good work, Brandon, I like it very much. Happy birthday from me, too.

Really marvelous work Brandon and like the way the background doesn't take away from the beautiful single blossom
