I like this one continuing to mess with some different elements of composure.

looks good B. I personally would try to put more negative space in the bottom left, because it seems a little too centered on that diagonal. (the whole cutting across to make 2 different sections of the picture annoys me, i only mentioned that because you were playing with composure)

now you just have to admit that your real hobby is growing pretty plants.

this is something i played with. I feel that sometimes cropping it drastically gives the photos more draw. I also played with soe levels to try and get some of the details back in the white pedals, they seem a bit blown out, You might want to try creating 2 layers and doing different post processing to each, then merging them, or edit the curves per channel. to get the colors you want, then bump the exposure up or down. I also then sometimes edit using selective color, and pop the ones i want.

Yeah i like the open space in my crop but i see what you are saying in yours.

another idea, is to crowd the right side a bit more, and create more space to the left? it'll give it just a slightly off balance feel, which can be a nice composition as well.

I like that idea too. Open space is cool.
