I wish the background were more colorful and not so dark. It gives the image no depth.

When I first opened the page to start voting on this challenge, this thumbnail stood out like crazy to me! I just had to click on it and look at it before starting my voting! I LOVE IT@ The background plants add SO MUCH to a picture that would otherwise be very conventional.
The main flower has such beautiful shadows/silhouettes and such impressive colors.
The image reminds me of one of the default desktop backgrounds for, I think, Windows 98, but it's so much better!
My only critique is the empty stem to the right of the main flower..

So pretty and full of life! The only thing I'd change is the two spots at the bottom left hand corner..

Nice, tight crop. The frame throws me off because the red in it seems too different to me from the red in the flower.

I'm trying to figure out what you did here... I like it a lot because it's different and it's interesting.

Maybe it's just me, but there's too much going on in this image? I don't know..

Unfurling

Wow, what an intriguing flower. The only thing that bugs me is the DOF in this image. I'm assuming that the big unfocused area at the right is is another flower that was closer to you, I think it occupies too big of an area and it creates a distraction. Also, the fact that right behind it, something purple is focused throws me off. I would've loved to see this flower, with the same composition but simply with a nice bokeh in the background.

It seems like an entry for the light on white challenge. =P
I would've liked to have more focus in clarity in this picture to really make them stand out agains the white background.

My Front Yard

The picture in itself is great. I'm not sure how I feel about it in this challenge though. If the challenge title was flowers, gardens & fields I'd be okay with it.. It just seems to me as if you don't have a whole lot of flowers, or as if they're not a big part of the overall picture.

However, I do have to say that those are gorgeous trees to have in your front yard!
