Nice composition, interesting DOF, drab colors, needs something more to give it some punch and make it not boring - maybe saturate the color of the stamens and make them compete with the in focus petal for the center of attention. maybe lighten up the green of the background? Make it more high key? What about converting to black and white?

Thanks to all who took the time to offer comments. You're attention to my shot provided good insight into how others see the same vista. :)

Vibrant and colorful. Black background works very well. A few hot areas - but not detracting.

It has been so post-processed, it doesn't look like a photo to me anymore. I fear this one will not do well because of the nature of the challenge.

Appears to be heavily photoshopped. I see little photographic integrity as this could be entirely produced from scratch using paintbrushes and filters.
