### About This Image

Just playing - flowers new territory for me - no critters around today.

Just making compositionsI like in nice light.  
These pics are all compositionally based on colours - bright yellowS, nice blues, nice shapes of leaves

### Feedback Requested

Anything that comes to mind . These Asia clematis are wild in our hedge and an amazing colour and structure which I hope to have captured.  
Suggest away if you think of anything

Regards

Huw

Well it’s definitely colorful, but I think the up from under shot could be simplified by moving some things out of the way as you set up. I like the flower and the yellow leaves with the stems, but a lot of the overlapping leaves on the left are too heavy and compete with the flower. Also the exiting stems are too much. I think there’s a lot of potential with this plant though and I like the upward view with the bold blue sky. Great colors and vibrance.
