Gate Keepers(Cape Weed)

This is an another photo of different cropping. This weed, called

Gazania, had unasual stigmas. Your comments will be appriciated.

Thanks for watching.

This is a very good shot. I took a look at the other crop before commenting. I like the landscape layout better than the portrait. My one suggestion is to either include the entire flower (or at least not cut off the petals with the right and left edges of the frame), OR to crop out more, including a goo portion of the background at the top.

 

[if I sound too picky, it's because I had to look close to find something to suggest as an improvement.]

You are not picky at all...I was waiting long for a comment like yours, because I knew somrthing is not right with this photo. I still not sure which way is better, but certainly appreciate your suggestion. Thanks again.
