I like this one Ed.
And it has nothing to do with the fact
that some girls called me an Adonis in the past !!

Effective top down composition works really well. Particularly like the limited colour palette of blues and greens.

This is a beauty Ed. If you had a mirror image you would create a butterfly flower.
