Rose - Over Processed?

[Loopy]

I thought I'd put this here rather than in the macro section as I'd like some feedback on the processing please.

Have I gone too far. Does the colour fade work. Does it need more processing.
It might end up on a card but nothing more adventurous.

Thanks

I like the subdued tones. The subtle colour left still draws the eye.

I really like the idea, but think i'd prefer the "colour fade" to go maybe another circle of petals further out, and fade a little more gently...

Thank you both.

I'll try another edit later.

I'd like to see it's a little sharper on the focus in the centre and go with Mark's suggestion re the colour transition
