Thanks for the comments Ted, all I can say on my part is pure laziness that 
I did not reduce those highlights ;-)

Hi John,

Well mon ami you get three gold medals and a bronze for the first. And I'm 
being kind with the Bronze in this  case.

The potential is wonderful without question! HOWEVER? Those bright eye 
catching highlights just to the right of the flower kill it by taking our 
eyes completely away from the main body of what has potential of being a 
"GOLD MEDAL WINNER!" Sorry Mate!  Nothing personal, just the high lights are 
grabbingly too bright to disregard!  Maybe burning them down? Cloning over? 
Or whatever Photoshop magic could be used to take them out or tone them way 
down?

cheers,
Dr. ted
