Hi Charlotte,

I nearly missed this. Sparse clover blooms are hard to put into a composition. I'm glad you have this set available to work with. Some of the flowers are in focus and well imaged. others are not.

I have cropped the picture and made some curve adjustments as an example of what you might experiment with in designing a composition.

I was surprised at the size of your files and that it does not take up an entire page width in your post! Here's my limited attempt to reframe the picture. You will have your own ideas and can re shoot if you wish.

Working with such small flowers is difficult! A macro set up is really what's needed!
