Sometimes showing less is more. This Oxeye Daisy (to me) lends itself to a close-up study of the center button. I like the detail and the pattern formed by the rays.
To me, it looks like the sun and rays against a sunseting sky. I've done this with several types of flowers, but these Daisies and Sunflowers seem to look their best when photographed like this. I've also tried photographing them from the back. The details are so intricate and sometimes we just pass them and don't give it a thought. Next time you're out with your camera, try checking out all the parts of a flower. You might be surprised.

I love daisies, and your composition here adds interest and detail!
Thank you, Karen. It's nice hearing from you again.
There is so much going on in this close-up shot--pollen grains just waiting for a pollinator! Thank you Loyce, for reminding us to slow down and really look.
Thank you, Margo. In this case, less is more. I've been doing a lot of macro photography since I've been at my daughter's house. I can't go out because I'm taking care of her and macro is just perfect for taking pictures around the house.
