Re: Lilly
Hi Tom
I would crop the image from right and left because the big leaves distract.

Or alternatively, crop substantially from the left to place the flower off center, and then darken or blur the leaf on the right.

It looks to me as though you have an exposure problem--parts of the petals appear to be blown out, that is, overexposed to the point where there is no detail. The histogram likewise shows a spike at the right-hand edge. With light flowers, a key is to expose so that nothing is overexposed. The most careful approach is to set you camera's histogram to show all three color channels and check them all, because the overall histogram can look fine even if one channel is blown out.
