Standing out in a Crowdby benficaComment: A pretty bouquet, with strong vibrant colours, and a softness that suits the subject. The composition does seem just a little too haphazard for my tastes, and I find myself trying to look beyond the bottom of the picture. |

Man and his Flowersby keriboiComment: The green finger nails on the scarecrow definitely scare me, even if it doesn't scare the crows! I like the idea behind the photo, but am not sure the composition and focal point entirely work for me. |

Flower Macroby ladpupmoeComment: I am not entirely convinced the relatively cluttered 'context giving' background works with the specific composition you have chosen. That said, it is a pretty flower and you display good detail in its petals and centre. |

Petal to the Metalby BAMartinComment: A strange medley of objects to accompany the sun-flower. I usually like the use of shallow depth of field, but here it has given the effect of a fake background. |

bee's harvestby teranbComment: The focus appears to be on the petals, and I do feel that in this image the critical sharpness needed to be on the bee. The colours are good and strong, befitting your subject. I do though, find my eyes drawn to the right and the vertical green line - a stake, or a blade of grass perhaps? |

She Loves Me Notby BlackboxComment: Aww, there will be someone else out there for you! An interesting oob idea, and a refreshing change. I am not particularly keen on the harsh light, which has resulted in a heavy shadow over the left arm, which does rather spoil your carefully composed symmetry. |

Open for Businessby PrismComment: A Paeony? The flower shows well against the black background, although the light is a tad on the harsh side. The wide depth of field, allowing for the whole of the flower to be in focus makes for an interesting image. I do though, find the bud in the foreground very distracting. |

Morning Beautyby jumboshrimpComment: A straightforward approach with good focus and choice of DoF. The light looks a little harsh for flower photographer and may have been softer earlier in the day. |

Lilyby crikComment: A pretty flower, well exposed, good focus, good background, but the overall effect is badly damaged by the heavy black border - white would seem to be much more in keeping with the mood of the image. |

THINK PINKby dfstevensonComment: This photo doesn't really work for me. The very narrow depth of field has resulted in out of focus petals to the front of the flower, and these seem to act almost as a barrier. My brain struggles to make sense of the jumble of petals presented. |
