Just keep playing until you get it! Blooms such as this are difficult owing to the difficulty of finding contrast in there - much of the time it's a matter of the correct time of day.

i want to show off its shape, but on this particular one there are so many of them that its hard to find the defining edge ~ is that the right terminology?

Right terminology - not sure. But an excellent way of putting it!
You could cut all the others off.....
