Narcissus No.1

Please critique

I like this still life. Very nice lighting, especially on the stalks and the vase (complete with bubbles!). I think it would benefit from a bit of highight on the blossoms and a slightly tighter crop. Don't take my nit picks seriously - I think it is a great shot.

Your main subject here are the yellow fowers and they are very nicely placed in the frame of the photo, but the white material on the table takes your eye away from the flowers as some of the white value is lighter than the yellow flowers. I would remove the white material with an editing program and then you would have a photo with one main subject, the yellow flowers. I visited your portfolio and all the other still life photos are very well done.
