Commentary:
This is a good shot. I do not think you were positioned though. Maybe the Buildings add to the shot. I do not see that though. I think it actually takes away from your main focal point.

Composition/Content - I appreciate the composition of this image, and I agree with others about the distractions in the lower corners. I like the presence of the flower's shadow on the blue background. I like the angle in which the flower is positioned. I feel like its a good rule of thirds application. The green leaves nicely accents the two main colors.

Background - I very much like the diverse exposure, focus, shades and textures of the blue background.

Camera Work - Technical - I don't know what I'd do differently so I won't comment on this.

Digital Processing - Technical - I assume you deepened the saturation of the blue. I would've done the same. I like the choices of brightness and contrast.

Opinion - The image clearly meets the challenge, and can hold its own even if it weren't submitted to a themed challenge. I enjoy the white vs. dark blue contrast.

Very pretty shot. I love the flowers. The problem for me comes with the background. The bottom left corner is the obvious problem. I with that the blue background were more uniform. The focus and clarity of the flowers is great. Lighting is also wonderful. The angle and framing/cropping are good. I also wish that the lint were removed from the upper half of the blue cloth, it's a bit distracting. Still a very nice blue shot. Good luck in the challenge.

This is nice. The dark bottom corner is a little distracting. The white flowers against such a pretty blue is a nice contrast.
