Very cool shot, great tones and I really dig the composition, easily my favorite of the ribbon winners in this challenge, will look forward to more of your stuff in the future, you certainly seem to have "the eye".

Nicely done, I used to have that lens and I was never able to squeeze out that kind of DOF or bokeh out of it so like I said, nicely done, congrats on the ribbon!

Hey dude, you asked for my critique dude but there is really not much I can say about this image except I like it. It´s got nice colors, well composed and excellent tones details in all areas of the shot, it´s well lit and thought out.

However, it probably didn´t do better in the challenge because it just lack´s that "x-factor" and what that could have been is beyond me... Maybe a water droplet falling on that flower? Nahhh, cheezy... Sorry dude, just can´t think of a thing but anyway, technically this shot is well done and up to par.

As far as figuring out the low votes, spare yourself the headache and just do stuff for yourself, some people might have given it a 4 simply because they think heads should pop out of shirt´s or that they don´t like red neckties or that they were offended that that´s the flower their date threw in their faces when they broke up with them 27 years ago at valentines day. Who knows? :)

Edit: spelling error!
