I must also confess but to a clerical error, in my haste I have committed a 'typo' the correct spelling is; 'Love-in-a-Mist', Family is RANUNCULACEAE. I only know this technical bit from the 'Observer's book of Garden Flowers, eighth reprint 1969, page 181 but my mother also had them in her front garden when I was a boy, we also have some in our garden. I think that this plant and flower displays some of the intricacies and marvels of nature's engineering! Just look at the structure of those tendril like leaves! The design of the stamens to ensure that the bees do the pollination when they collect the nectar.

By my opinion it would be more interesting if you had moved out the flower from the center. Try to cut off the empty right side of it!

Hi Gábor
Thanks for your suggestion. But I’m not fond of Photoshop manipulations. Except for signing my photos. But I’ve still got similar flowers in the backyard, and then will try to shot some as you recommend me to do.
Have successful captures.

I'm not sure if cropping it can be considered "Photoshop manipulations"? Photographers have been cropping their photos for a long time

No problemo! Happens to me all the time, very annoying when I notice a mistake in my post an hour after typing it!
