This is a great composition Angela... Have just been reading a camera mag about putting the main focal
point off centre, like here. I like the dropping flower dusted with snow too.....
Poor flowers look a bit cold! I like the contrast of the spring and winter. We’re in the midst of a big snow today after a warm, sunny day yesterday. Bummer.
I like it off center. I think I might prefer a closer crop that puts the flower closer to the bottom of the frame and loses some of the negative space in the top right hand corner.
I really like the muted colours and the beautiful speckled pattern in the flower.
@chessington@jo13@idieh71@gardencat Thank you all for your comments. I had several more conventional shots but thought I'd try this one with all the snow in the background and so off centre. Great to get your feedback .It's a bit different, at least... I take your point, Joanne about a closer crop.
Beautiful composition. Never mind the imagined "rules" the camera-club enthusiasts try to convince you must be obeyed ... If it looks right it IS right - and this is very right indeed! Definitely a FAV!
