Wonderful colours.

I agree, this image has very soft and soothing colors.

The colours are lovely, but the framing on the left is a little too tight for my taste.

Thanks, and I appreciate your thoughts, Jeremy. The image is cropped, so would you suggest adding more room on the left, and placing the daisy in the center of the image?

No, I wouldn't go that far: I don't generally like centred images. I think your framing is pretty good. I'd just add a small amount to the left side so that the edge of the flower doesn't feel so cramped.

Yes, great colours and form, apart from that one big petal on the left. Another approach would be to move around the flower in order to minimize the long petal by foreshortening.
