Thanks Kris. Wondered if I should crop to a square format so the flower fills the frame and the hoverfly is more prominent. Anyone want to give their opinion?

Thank you for all who commented.
I also opened a thread on this in the Forum and asked the same question and it seems overall there were more on the side of not cropping square but there was a suggestion to crop slightly to remove the blurred shiny leaf to the left. I think that is what I shall do.
Cheers,
Roy
