Awesome. One of the best in the challenge. I like the tough expressions and the lighting.

Good clean shot, but for some reason I would expect it to be a bit more dramatic considering the source.

MAK! This is beautiful beyond belief. I would definitely have given this one a ribbon if it were me deciding. Your tribute to our friend is touching and stunning!

Comment by Mal37:
Nice colors. The OOF flowers lead my eye up to the in-focus flower, however this feels unnatural in a way. If the background flowers created more of a curve towards a more centered subject this might work better, or you could add more black space above and on the left to balance the shot a bit. I think it's the lack of support (stem, etc.) for the subject flower which is very high in the frame that I find disconcerting. Sorry to ramble on. Feel free to PM me if you would like me to try explaining that again.

Easily my favorite from the challenge. Reminds me of the pairing of the rhino and the birds that sit on it , to help clean it.
