I see that there are some mixed feelings on the border, which is really the first thing that jumped out at me. I am one of the ones that don't like it much at all. While it does enhance it's purpose in the challenge, it kind of reminds me of my grandma's wordrobe back in the 80's. *shudder*
This looks like those little purple clovers we get in our yard, but I assume it looks much different after it's opened up all the way.
The background works very nicely here. I like how you have blurred it to the point that it contains no distracting elements, and stays out of the way of the subject. It really does let the flower be the center of attention.
I think that the focus on the flower is great. Wonderful detail, and the capture of the little water droplets creates supurb detail.
The lighting conditions look like the were working with you for this shot. Natural lighting is always my favorite, I think.
I think the angle is nice as well. I like how you have the stem going down into the bottom right corner, that is very pleasing to the eye.
The colors IN the photo are great. Ditch the orange though. :)
