Didn't vote this challenge, but I love this image, especially the background. The photo overall is lovely, but the hot spots on the bottom of the vase are distracting, as is the hot spot on the right hand side. Just cropping the right-hand hot spot would crowd the flowers too much, I think, so they would need to be moved a titch. If you ever try a reshoot, I'd love to see it in your portfolio.

Great title. I think it would be better at an angle to show more of the tree's shadow. The photo is a little pixelated as well.

Good idea, well done. Might have been good to move the rear picnic table out, or maybe even both.

This is an awesome find. I think I would have preferred this from straight on (of course, you would have then been in the way of the shadow, huh?).. 9

Nice idea, I think it would work better if the window/door on th right were cropped off.

9. My comment did not take, so this is what I thought I said. Stunning photograph. I would like to see a version that cropped the right side to the edge of the column.

Really love the effect...prefrred to see the co9lumns go all the way across and a little illumination on the flowers. Very neat concept.

I just love this composition and the lighting behind it. The roses are just a bit dark, but the drama and majesty of the photo work so nicely. 9

Excellent shot. Neat image, awsome compositions. I will find it again in top ten, I am sure, maybe with a ribbon.
