Yes & No.



The spot has gone but now there are two round shaded 'spots' on the same petal that weren't there (or visible) before. Now I look again I also find the tiny piece of petal showing (bottom left 1/5 of the way in) distracting too ! All easy to PP out - but I do like what you have done in creating this shot.

I've redone it to give a better result.

Thank you for your comment and I agree, the black background doesn't make the photo look as busy as the previous ones which in effect is good.
