May be a bit tighter crop on right ?? to bring the main blossom more to 1/3 ??
Let the wiser tell
But its defenetly pleasing to look at it

It makes deciding even more difficult
In a way I like the first one better - it is more delicate. It fits the background so well, being at the same time bright and vivid.
The second is bold. It creates the contrast. The trunk is creatinga new theme, its dominating.
Both are good in their own way
Poor Mike, if its rejected

Lot of disturbing around.
The highlights are wierd on the bottom.
I would work for bringing out the texture of the petals (the surface). Its so nice - can be seen there, but might be the "main object"
How - have no idea. I do not know anything about flashes As a lack of knowledge I tend to use natural light

But.... after looking at it again it looks even less like a windmill that it did before.
I guess this teaches me to take a wider insurance shot after my attempt at "artistic framing" so I can reframe or crop it differently when I get it home and realise I've messed up again.....
For me it works - it IS windmill !. And I like the shadow

And I start to think, that you have a bit of humor in all of your pics
It is just nice pic, but it makes me smile - you have cought a moment, and the moment is a bit funny again
