Here is my "altered" clematis.

I like it. What do you think? Can you lighten the flowers especially the lower ones a bit? The composition is good, love the stone wall in contrast to the soft flowers and from what I can tell, it looks in focus. Did you crop the left side to remove the bottom stems or did you use the clone tool. If you didn't crop, can you add a little more to the left side so the one flower isn't so close to the edge. I know that I'm being picky, but I'm trying to look at it from a judge's point of view. Just trying to help. Tell me to shut up if you don't like my critique. It won't hurt my feelings:)

I LOVE your critiquing. . . and I usually agree with 90%. . . you can't hurt my feelings either. . . I'm back to the ratio / cropping issue. Are we obliged to stay within the standard ratio cropping ( ie 4x6, square, 5x7) ?????? Because I cropped the top and then had to come "in" on the left. I agree that the flower is a little too close to the left edge.

I would lighten but I am thinking about how "over lighted" they appeared on the projector last time.

They seem to like things REALLY cropped, thats why I don't think the one of Andy and the bin is gonna work.... I'm in the starting over mode..... got to find something interesting without a body in it. aaargh!!
