Lovely arrangement, Steven. I really like what you did with the light on the left and right blooms. The echo flower behind the main subject feels like it’s a bit too bright to my eye and keeps pulling me toward it.

Thanks for the comments Dennis. I see what you mean about the back center bloom.

Steven, these blooms are really beautiful. Something about the composition was bothering me. @Dennis_Plank hit on it. I was wondering about the softness of the back flower in the middle. I had not thought about its value. Toning it down would blend it with the other two.
