Composition isn't the best (centered subject and horizon lines are not in a place that makes them pleasing) but the processing is excellent.

Maybe a little more softness in the cheek? Lovely otherwise.

Nice capture. Not crazy about the muted colors.

The blue in the corner kills this for me and I'm not a fan of the crop. Coast makes it all feel crooked as well. Lovely colors but an "uncomfortable" image for me.

Nice image. A little perspective correction to tweak the lines would improve it.

South Street Philly? Looks like the old Zipperhead. Been ages.

Lovely capture. Wish you had panned down a bit to remove the center horizon.

Needs vertical and/or horizontals straight - at least somewhere. Neat capture. Gotta be the Pac Northwest, right?

Nicely captured. Would have liked a touch more DoF to bring in the edges of the eyes.

First of all, as a photo I really like this though I agree with the point below that a different crop may have given this more impact. As is it's nice, but doesn't blow me away, which seems to be the way it was received.

For an "edge" challenge what I think this lacks is enough real edge. Sure, there are petal edges here, but they aren't really well defined, and even where they are they quickly disappear with the depth of field. Playing with it I believe a tighter crop and some rotation, placing the center off to the side a bit, highlights the edges more, but I can't say that it makes it a much "better image", just one that may have been better received for the challenge.
