Real pretty. The leaves are a bit of a distraction. Maybe the composition would be a bit more interesting if we could see more of the stem and the leaves presenting in a more flattering way.

Thanks for your input! I do have a better angle on the leaf but I wasn't thrilled about the framing - too much table and not enough headroom. Here it is uncropped:

Oh yes. I see the dilemma. I like the leaf more in this one and the flower less. LOL Isn't it fun and frustrating?

Frustrating for sure but a good reason to try again tomorrow.

Something in between the first 2 as far as the leaf and the angle of the flower go. It's a bit tight though, I wish I had backed off a bit. We'll see if the flower survives the night and if the light is just as nice tomorrow morning.
