The Last Petal to Open
To make macro flower compositions more interesting, look for a bloom with an abnormality, or an unusual feature to act as a focal point. Draw more attention to your focal point by using a large aperture to create a very narrow depth of field so only the unusual part of the bloom is in focus.
A perfectly symmetrical flower is usually not nearly as interesting as one with a unique character or 'personality'.

SO true.
I must admit most abnormality in my case is the view finder side of the camera.
Yes always the more unusual is more interesting. Now finding it is the trick!
Adrian, I will admit to that as well!! haha
Great advice and this photo is excellent! Great bokeh!
cool composition.
this one truly does have 'personality'
Karen, perfect example!
It is unusual and very pretty from that angle.
Of course and wonderful shot and love the subtle texture on there too.
Great advise!
Ooooo, love this. Thanks for visiting my blog a while back. Somehow the comment email got buried and I just discovered it now. So sorry about that. I am loving your images.
