I like the simplicity of the single blossom. I was out taking some images the other day very similar. :-) The curve of the branch adds a nice gentle restrainer to keep the viewer engaged with the photo. Focus is a tad soft, which overall is fine, but I think this would be stronger if the details of the blossom were more defined.

Technically, the pink is a "warm" color. Somehow, the image feels cold and the pink isn't strong (or large) enough to raise the temperature IMO. The large bg area of white/grey is influencing the overall impact I think.

All JMO of course. :-) Good luck in the challenge.

i gave this an 8. I liked to softness of teh curving pattern that you got in hsi fower ,whilst still keeping the background darker.

You have kept the details as sharp as possible in this, I am wondering if the angle could be a little differnt. The only reason I am saying this is the brown stalk is very much there, I am not sure if it is takign away from teh picture or not.

I am a lover of negative space, but also wondering if it was taken in just a tad bit on the left side, not much just a tad.

Overall, the pattern is soft and flowing the leading line of hte flower is great.
