I really like the color tint you put on this. Gives a real sense of fire.

Interesting choice of subject for this challenge. You managed to make it low key, which, of course, you had to for this challenge, but it makes me think there should be something else out there that the sunflower is just barely illuminating ... or something that hints at why a normally bright and cheery flower isn't. If that makes sense ;-)

Although the focus could be a tad sharper I think you have done well here with a simple and effective shot.

This feels a bit strange on a few levels. It seems to lean just a bit to the left, but that just might be my eyes. I also think the reflection is given a bit too much real-estate on the page. It's not bright enough or sharp enough to be interesting, maybe if this was shot on a mirror, that'd be different.

the main thing that I noticed, and is probably what's going to hurt your score a bit from the other voters is that the lighting is causing some really strange highlights on the glasses, while simultaneously making the scene feel very flat/low contrast. If these glasses were lit from one side (and have a black card as your bounce on the other side) you get really strong contrast, and a nice looking vertical stripe on the side of the glasses.

I like the idea and the reflection but it looks fuzzy and not quite in focus.

nice tribute shot - the lighting is nice and even but I wish the textures and details were a bit more pronounced
