This is lovely, just feel it could be improved by lightening it a little.
A little additional brighness. Afraid more might blow it out.
It's the problem with the white flowers... a few ones have exposed ok , and it's really not easy... I prefer take the risk and let a bit under-exposed. I liked your photo very much author... as usual...
Thanks for your comments. Always appreciated.
