This was absolutely one of my favorites. I'm glad to see it do so well :-)

Great lighting, effective border, and the twisting petals really suit the central composition. Deserved the placing. Agree with the comments about a larger depth of field to clarify the edges of the flower a tad more.
Good work! :)

I would like this more with more DOF, the focus is too shallow in my opinion.

Agreed about the light issues and also the pictures are VERY soft (especially the one on the left).

Comment by GoodEnd:
You get a decent shot, great feeling of moment. Good expression in this. But bad light. The light here would be soft and helps you to manage the shadows at eyes and neck. If Want to preserve this shadows may be a backlight with a soft fill flash (FE compensation turned down) can cary it all without that dull light of actual picture.
One other issue gives respect to the focus at right image. It has amazingly content but suffer fromlight issues plus a very soft focus that tend to be a motion blur.

Your other pictures are stunning. Unfortunate with this.
