I like the use ofB/W but I think that this would be stronger with a bit more space at the bottom

This is great. I think I would prefer to have seen more of the top of the petals in the middle section.

A candle and an orchid

I thought that this was a really beautiful and outstanding picture, deserved to do much better. Perhaps you could reshoot it with a newer candle, to catch the flame and also real flowers. But the lighting and colours on this are so pretty.

Good sign at the end of the road

Composition-content
what a great capture of such a beautiful rainbow! Lovely image, until you hit the road, which I understand that you needed to keep to try and fit the challenge, but this would be so nicer without it! I hope that you have done some more crops for yourself, minus the road and concentrating on the rainbow. Composition is nice, with the rainbow coming out of the corner of the shot. i think I would have prefered for the blue car to have been cropped out, but then I suppose you would have lost the road signs, the other sign element in this picture.
Technical
Firstly, I feel that this is a bit tilted, perhaps you could have rotated it a bit to the left. focus is good. Perhaps a little more contrast in colour would have brought out the colours of the rainbow more,and set it off with a darker blue sky-lovely, maybe you can do this minus the road.
My Opinion
Its a lovely shot, doesn't quite meet the challenge, but still a great capture! Good Luck in the next challenge.
