Composition-Content

This is a lovely picture, a really pretty scene. Perhaps the Natural Numbers are not as obvious as others, but as the picture stands, it is great!

Technical

DOF is perfect, great sharpness on the petals and a very attractive blurred background. The flowers really jump out! Lighting also enhances this effect, with the light falling on the petals and creating beautiful colours and contrast. The border complements the picture and colours very well.

My Opinion

This is a lovely shot, I think that the Natural Number element probably wasn't strong enough for most voters, but this was a very hard challenge and I think that you did a great job!

Great! It must have been hard coordinating this one. I hope you didn't get any on your camera. The grainy look is good here and I'm glad I can't see any hairs on the rim.

I bet taking this shot was a "draining" experience.

Good composition. Black and white whorks well in "this situation". Matches the challenge with more humor than any other.
