I love the silhouette here. This is actually really nice. I would crop out the bottom part though because the bright light is distracting and just doesn't go with the mood of the shot imo. Cut just below the bottome silhouetted leaf and you'll still have just a little of the white but it isn't much and I think the leaf should be kept in it. jmo

Kind of sad, dying blooms/dying light sort of feeling evoked by this.

The light and dark areas in the background are most effective in your composition. Can't decide whether I like the plant (dandelion?) or not - kind of like a "bad=hair" day.

Not your typical flower shot, but very complex and mysterious. This is flower photography I can truly enjoy.

Yes, this crop is definitely. Lovely gold hues with just the right amount of light.

This a complex and well done image. Love the high key, the glinting light outlining the flower stem and branches. The BG light, lower half, fad away to the left showing perspective. The light descending from the top is ever so nice. You can tell, I like this.

Selective focus is not easy to do well. This is beautiful. Stark & gentle at the same time. Well done!
