I like it. but you could consider cropping out the top left white bloom - and make the subject the larger flower in the frame. well presented in black and white.

splendid macro....the b/w tone adds more emphasis on the forms of your composition....the soft mellowed background is great so that the eyes automatically focuses on the opened flower.

Great shot, Sarito. You've highlighted the flower with minimal effort. It being in B/W gave the picture a real beauty.
