I did another one of my famous take a shot and make it fit the challenge and this time I paid the price.

The original shot wasn't centered, so I had to change the crop. When I cropped it more to lose the chin, it seemed more difficult to tell that it was a jacket. I really should stick to submitting photos that are taken with the challenge in mind.

I'm thankful to those who voted higher, but I do agree that it wasn't my best.

I like the shallow DOF This image works well for centered composition
I would have probably cropped a bit tighter to eliminate the chin at the top left

It's a centered composition but i feel not a very interesting shot to be honest. Perhaps a different angle may give the image more impact? 4.

Centered composition - yes. Subject interest - weak. The flower is the subject but it doesn't hold much detail to be of interest. Background and foreground are distracting.
