I have a flowering plant that is just covered with spider mums. It is quite flamboyant and devilishly hard to photograph. Here is another version of the flower:

I like it but what so small? It begs to be given more room.

Like the others, I like the composition. Nice detail and colours too.

Lucky you! I tried to grow spider mums for a while. In some ways, I think a greenhouse is required. They are so much fun to look at, it's impossible to resist! There is more BG than mum, almost, so it would be a challenge to get a shot that comes close to what you see. If anyone can, you can! I like the reverse angle very well, & the buttery yellow color. I hope you will take full advantage of having a spider mum easily available & shoot like mad!

I like this perspective and DOF. Much cleaner than the other one showing all the petals; I can see why they're hard to photograph!
