Photographer’s Notes I am color blind – and am not good with subtle colors. I would normally describe pastel colors as over exposed and under saturated.
Driving home this morning I saw some flowers about a quarter mile from my house. So I gabbed my camera and went to work. Ending up shooting these just a few feet from the front door.
It’s not what I usually shoot but I liked the dreamy quality the wide open lens produced.

Nice shot. Fits in well with this challenge. The flowers have nice "pastel" colors. Pretty good for being color blind. I think you should have done better in the challenge. The only thing I see that may have hurt your score is there is part of the bottom flower that seems to be out of focus / blurry. Anyway overall nice shot. Happy shooting
The creamy colors and flowing lines are strong components of this image. Quite sincerely, I hope this does well as it deserves, in my opinion, front page placement.
