Light and Shadow

[Rod-UK]

Wandering in the garden late evening looking for some subjects in light and shadow to shoot, there was this Buddleia bloom just hit by a ray of the setting sun.

Details; ISO200; Aperture f5.6; Shutter 1/125 sec; FL 111mm.
No adjustments other than the crop

In aesthetic critique, does it work ? if not, I would really like to know why. Then in the future I'll have a better idea of what to look out for

The light does pick out the colour of the petals quite well and contrasts with the shaded part nicely. Although it's unfortunate it's not all in bloom, I can imaging what it could look like though and think it would be rather unusual and different although it does seem to be at a strange angle and crop.

Hope this helps?

Thanks for the comment.

The crop was done taking advantage of the angle that the bloom lay, what you see is as it was
