Lovely flower- as for the border I don't think it's distracting, but I would have cropped off the outer white edge and only left on the part that overlays the image. I like a definite edge to my images so I would have the greenery form the edge.
@olivetreeann Thanks for your suggestion Ann - I can see what you're saying and it would definitely be an improvement. I don't use fancy edges very often so this is a bit of a trial and I really appreciate your suggestion and reason for it. I just uploaded today's image so I'll have a look at it and see if it would have been improved by this idea.... Cheers Rob
@robz As always- there's so many ways to approach an image- and in the end what you do is always an artistic choice and in line with the way you see things.
I think it depends a lot on the subject and the style of the frame which should never overpower the image. I think flower shots such as this lend themselves nicely to a frame. Ultimately, it is an artistic choice made by the photographer.
@cdcook48 Hi Chris - after reading all the comments on these various shots it really does seem to boil down to personal preference. After looking back at this one I'm not at all sure that I would use it again... :)
