Comment by inspzil:
My kids are in the learning to ride bikes stage, so I know all about this. I think the crop is a little to tight on this one. I'd at least have included the entire training wheel.

Very nice, but would suggest web site address more visible in horizontal position. Best mix of photographs of all submissions. Nice!

Greetings fromt the Critique Club
Hi Paul! (*waves to Isaac*)

Composition
Oohh! All this beautiful color, nothing at ALL in the center of the photo. I'm one of those who'd not like to see you center one single flower - that's boring. But in this case, as Karen said below, it's a big...nothing!

Color
I love the orange and green contrast. I wish we could see more detail in the flowers - maybe a closer view on this beautiful coloring.

Focus
As you say in your comments, it was windy - that leads to two things - accept it and sharpen the pic or come back later. Without doing either, you know what the problem is, so I'll move on.

Lighting
This was an overcast day? The flowers in the left middle look super bright - almost overexposed. If you shot near dusk or dawn, perhaps you'd get better natural light.

Subject matter
An appropriate selection - I would have changed the composition, but that's just my idea of what it should look like.

Overall
I didn't think this kind of border was legal - as did many others. I think it hurt this shot overall anyways. A good shot - keep playing with it.

Good luck!

Very nicely done. Portrays the dpchallenge message well. However, I think that the blue roses look a little to artistically done, which may just give the wrong message. Would have preferred roses of a different color, since blue roses are so very rare (if they exist?).
