John Wayne, Nice image of rose. Love the complementary colors. somehow, my attention gets drawn to left side to the dark background. This is more of a personal preference. I think cropping the background out and toning down some of the bright yellows would improve the image.

Thanks for your review Ravi, the yellow is indeed, bright so I’ll try to reduce the brightness in a repost.

This looks a lot better, now that the flower is frame-filling, the yellows are well complemented by the magentas.

John Wayne: I do like the original but the repost is a nice improvement. Well done. >=))>

Reduced the vibrance so the reds/hot pinks don’t bleed and sharpened with PS.
