'Phew', glad I was right (although there was another entry dangerously close to your style), but my money was on this. Beautiful abstract and colors, as usual. Congratulations.

This is so beautiful and makes an excellent photo for several reasons. First, the shallow DOF and the subtle gradations from green to blue provide a simple yet elegant abstrant background. Second, the composition and POV underneath the flower provide a new, interesting approach. And third, the radiance and glowing quality of the warm colors up front contrasted with the cool colors in back. Truly a gem in your portfolio. I had high hopes for you in this challenge and you proved them right. Congrats!

What a stunning image you have made here. I didnt get to vote on it, but I can assure you it would have given you another 10. The colors the DOF and the angle make this shot worthy of the ribbon. I dont think I would change a thing, of course that would mean I could make the shot look like you did(highly unlikely). Very well done and congrats on yet another Ribbon.
