I like your subject. I wish there were greater contrast between the subject and the background either by use of color or by lighting.

Stunning interpretation of a water lily. Very dramatic. Good one. Maybe a little soft in the center... but those petals are exceptional.

Cool image. Good composition, though these symmetrical shots are e x t r e m e l y hard to get perfect. For instance, the two jacks next to each other are at slightly different vertical levels near the top points that are touching and the left jack covers up more of the far jack than the right jack does.

Good lighting, makes nice shadows.

Good dof. Like the use of repetitive patterns and curves.

Not three dimensional. I don't know if it is the angle or the glare.
