It's so beautiful, yet it incites a struggle...do I like the centered comp, or do I not. I love the painterly areas that surround the lily and would hate to lose them. So centered works for this,though there is still discomfort...which isn't always a bad thing.The negative space areas also add to the titles meaning I think.

The backdrop is nice and the color supportive but the image overall is quite noisy

I love this and the other one in puzzle macro. I hope you have made a whole series of them. They would look great framed and displayed.
