Lovely colors, I like that one can see the same flower in the background, but for some reason this seems rather plain to me. All the visual interest is in the very center of the shot and the blossoms are pretty, but not extraordinary. Try jazzing it up a bit with a different angle or different framing.

The flowers seem to have an odd artifact around the edges along the top.

Very cheerful. I love the colors, and the bokeh is a very nice feature of the image.

My first thought was that this was over-sharpened, but on closer examination, I see it's selection marks around the petals where you've masked out the background. Unfortunately, selections of any kind are not legal within the Basic Editing rule set and you may be disqualified from this challenge. Don't take it to heart though, keep entering!

By the way, if you're a paid member, this type of editing IS allowed but ONLY in challenges where Advanced Editing is used.

In any event, should you want to re-edit this for yourself, try using the magnetic lasso and set feathering to at least 10 to 20px to make the transition look smoother :)

I like how it standsout against the background but the flowers dont lok clear and the picture is rather dull.
