I like this photograph because the composition has created a simple and basic feel. It shows the contrast between the centre of the flower and the petals.
The main focal point of the photograph is the anthers and pollen, although it's not directly in the centre, it is the most in focus. This is framed by the surround petals, which the vans are all leading to the centre, focusing your attention to the centre and to the subject.
Overall the photograph is high key with some overexposed petals being light. It seems to be extremely close, with a calm mood carrying through.
If the petals were removed then there would be no frame focusing your attention to the subject. It would also be removing the mood entirely.
