But... for some reason I really like the light on this one, so
I'll grit my teeth, share this with the group, and wait for the
onslaught of criticism. :-)

It's happened to me too. I never got the original post on this one.
As flower pictures go, I think it's a miss unfortunately. The light
might be nice, but the left side is over bright and the detail of the
flower's center is both small and in shadow. The other elements in
the composition don't meld together in way of pleasing geometry.
I'm not really one for shooting flowers either, but lately I've
gotten a lot of them. Only a few are really worth working on to me.
