Mike,
The strong point of this image is the composition. Moving the center of the flower off center makes this composition work. Like your Leaf Veins image, the hot spots from the light end up being the focal point of the image. More so with this one as there is very little color to grab the viewer's attention. This one may be a good candidate for converting to black and white. Then you could clone out the bright spots and bring up the contrast, making the center of the flower the natural focal point.

of the 4 you posted, this particular one caught my attention because of your composition. it's nice. i like the way the petals unfolds away from its center. just be careful with the top-right corner - the brown (table top?) and the light reflection isn't very appealing. |

I think dodging and burning and either bringing out the colour more or completely taking it away will help.. reminds me of one of my own actually  |
