I'm sure you've been made well aware of the date in the bottom right. Wouldn't be so bad if it weren't orange. But putting that aside, I think your overall intention was in the right place with the main focus is on the flowers. But the petal in the center of the photograph fell out of focus there which normally would slip by, but since it's in the center, it becomes kind of distracting.

Overall, the image seems a little over-compressed or over-sharpened. On the upside, the colors pop really well against the green background, so well done on that! But I'd say pay close attention to choosing a definite focal point and making sure that everything you want focused is where you want it. 8o)

Great idea for the challenge! I alway like how many skin-tones compliment purple so well. Maybe a tad bit more depth to keep the right side of the body in focus, but overall, very well done! 8o)

The orange lights and reflections against the purple sky and water are a nice spark and compliment the sunset well! The only thing that breaks the mood for me is the surfer in the lower left. Not a big deal though. Well done! 8o)
