+ There is texture present. Fortunately you mention in the title that this subject should resemble a feather
- I think the bird from whom this feather was must have been died a terrible death as these feathers are just so poor and fragile :(. Very uninteresting photo and combined with the strange unsharpness at the left side of this picture makes this a sad thing to view.

Colours too faded and insipid for me. Composition is interesting. The wavy lines are not really attention grabbing enough.

Somewhat washed out. I'd like to have seen a more distinctively clean glass vase with crisper reflections and more deeply colored stalks and leaves. As is, it's difficult to tell if it's just the water that's cloudy, or the glass and the water that's murky and dull.

I understand your intent, but the water is a bit too murky. Maybe more light? Sorry.

I like the interpretation and the fact that it is so clearly water without having to show it's water. I like the way it relies on the knowledge of the viewer to know that cut flowers will be in water.
My only crit is that the lighting is a little flat. I think harder light would have accentuated the straight lines of the stalks. The top right corner of white is a little distracting. It is good that it shows the edge of the glass but I dragged it into photoshop and recreated an off-white background and it took away some of the glare of white. It also had the benefit of making the whole picture "appear" more contrasty

feels like there is a film over the image. very faded. even the part out of the water. could use adjustments in contrast. not the best composition.
