#1 White Sow Thistle (yes, related to dandelions) From the round yellow flower in the upper left to the two mature seed heads below showing a top view and a side view of their circular form to the cross formed by the four buds on right. The buds balance the flower and the seed heads form the joint of the two pronged shape.
5DIV, 100-400L mk2 @ 400, 1/500 @ f/8.0, ISO-250 handheld under noon light
#2 Wild Roses - one just past its prime and one just fully opened. Circles of red surrounding a mostly white center and a mostly yellow center.
5DIV, 100-400L mk2 @ 400, 1/500 @ f/8.0, ISO-800 hand held under noon light
Both images on the same day just minutes apart in May 2019

Thanks, I redid the PP work using new apps - Topaz AI among them.

The composition of this photo and the photo, in general, are very pleasing to me.
Typical are triangle, diagonal, linear, etc but I can not come up with one to discribe this composition.

Glad you enjoyed it.
Double diagonal - 'L', leading lines from the puff balls in two directions? Doesn't matter, I think that whatever it is it worked fairly well.
I did remove a part of the plant because I thought it was not needed.
