I used the white-on-white challenge today and concentrated on composition. I don't know much about background but tried to make this one look sueded.

Looks good to me. Sueded? As opposed to Subdued?

[Taffy]

@steampowered Subdued would have made more sense, but I meant that flat fuzzy feeling of suede fabric.

[Paul "Snapchap" Everest]

@taffy Sueded does nicely for me. I think that you have done a great job.

[Taffy]

@steampowered Thanks! Couldn't believe how long it took to set up and get the shot. So I appreciate the kind comment.

[David Price]

Great W on W. Really well done. Fav'ed

[TerriTh]

It does look sueded. Looks like you conquered the White on White challenge nicely

@tthompsonca @david68
Thanks for the kind comment, and David, thanks for the fav!

pretty whites, like the focus on the petals.

[Felicity]

[Dean Patrick]

You're doing such magical things with your photography work! It's evident that you are studying, experimenting, learning, and being entirely successful!

I wonder if it's ok to suggest that you try two alternate versions that are cropped to show the flower going beyond the frame (in other words, removing a bit of bottom and left) and another putting the flower blooming into the frame, removing a bit of the top and right?
