Nice composition but I question the need for the second flower center at the bottom right. White background wworks very niely for you.

I find the colors, focus and composition very pleasing. Nice entry!

The backlighting is visible, but a little to weak I think.. only the top part of the flower is really showing it, and your front lighting has overpowered it mostly. A stronger source was needed for the back in order to make this a truly effective shot. Or perhaps another back source to get more of the bottom half. Even if you were going for the effect of just having the top of the flower backlit, I think a stronger source of light would have helped. It's just too soft for me.

Why did you steal my idea? (Haha now you have to search for my picture in this competition)
But on a serious side, this is almost the same thing I had in my head of shooting, so I must give it a 10, but because of the imperfection in the top right leaf I distracht 1 point hehehe, got you there. (9)

I like the symmetry.. but the flower at the bottom spoils it
