A fly landed on this African Daisy as I was about to shoot a macro so I included it in the photo

Agree with Clifford and Jane the angle of the pedals and the colour going from darker on the outer edge to lighter closer to the centre really does move your eye to the middle of the flower. Nicely captured Harold.

Beautiful, love the composition, the outside petals seem to draw the eye to the centre. Like the tight crop also to avoid any distractions

I love the composition, Harold...the way all the petals pull your eye toward the center. Lovely. The fly is the icing on the cake.
