It is real flowers on a painting. Very clever. Beautiful execution, too. High marks for this one.

The flora isn't blooming here, yet, so this is last year's. :)

This use of a close color range really brings the subject to the forefront and creates a nice "bed" as a backdrop. I like what you've done here a lot. Great clarity and lighting.

Very blurry which has caused a loss of all detail in the flower's petals. The idea behind this is an excellent use of color and composition.

This is very overexposed which has blown out all the important detail and created a very harsh image of some very soft and delicate subjects.

The flash really caused a harshness on an image that is crying for softness and detail. The is still a beautiful composition and use of B&W.

Oooooh. Now here's an example of an excellent flower shot. I think I recognize this photographer's style. High marks for clarity, color usage, and background desaturation.

Interesting color combinations. I didn't like it at first, but as I type my comments it grows on me. New flower growing on bed of dead leaves. You've told a nice story and conveyed your vision (if I guessed it) well. Composition is also very well done here to have framed the flower (without cutting off its leaves) and its shadow.

Good lighting and excellent composition. For this to be an outstanding image you'd need a little more sharpness to it, but overall this is very good.

Great combination of colors here. Perfectly exposed and you've captured some nice details in the petals and leaves.

Hard to tell that this is a flora entry. But I'll take ownership for that and chalk it up to not seeing your vision. Technically the colors are perfectly saturated and I like how you've captured the details in the rocks. The angles created by your composition make this nice to look at.
