Oh Wow! I always love a open blossom juxtaposed against a closed bud and now it is twofold.

I was showing a friend how to use a "fancy" camera, so I took this photo as a way to show her how my photo looked compared to her point-and-shoot camera.Editing
Yes, I cropped the photo.In my camera bag

Interestingly enough, I thought the photo was fine as it was until I read a photography book that said that if you do not achieve the results you want for peer review, crop the photo tighter to bring more drama to the photo around your subject. So, I went back and cropped this photo and everyone loved the updated version!
