Flower with fly
I am sticking my head over the parapet to say out loud that I do like this one 
I do like black and white layering usually but this one seemed to suit antique`d sepia, your thoughts on that [ yay or nay ] and suggestions for improvements generally would be much appreciated

I'm not 100% sure it works for me, but I can see why it would work for others! 
You have the expoure on the petals down very very well indeed - with practically no blown highlights - which is excellent! White flowers are often hard to snap. Odd for me to say it - but shame about the fly 
- the flower is so delicate, andwith your PP I think it would work better without the fly - but then, the fly is very well caught.
I think you've done a grand job with it Patch! Well done!

Nice PP work there.
I agree with Zoundz that I am not sure how well it works as a total image - something about that effect doesn't work for me with the fly - but still a great job.
