ARGHH. OK. I wrote a critique and then it didn't send so here we go again if I can remember...
It sounds like you had fun, and you got a decent score. I think that the main issue with this shot is that it's more of a snapshot to document something rather than the set-up, thought out type of shot that most people consider high quality photography. For what it is, it's really good. I like that the interior of the vehicle adds context. The lighting is uneven of course, but it was a dreary day. You could've used a longer shutter speed instead of the flash that it looks like you used. That would probably require a tripod though so I'm not sure it's worth it.
If you wanted to really take advantage of the opportunity, you could've tried to fit in even more flowers so that no boxes showed and put another tall arrangement just behind the passenger seat. Then you could've filled the frame with the flowers. The lighting would bother me more that way though b/c I would think it was set-up and assume you could control the lighting.
I'm not sure where the focus locked, but everything looks rather soft. It isn't so bad as to be bothersome really though. Another low-light problem b/c you had to use such a low f# to get a high enough shutter speed to avoid shake.
I think that's about it. It amazes me how much money people spend on flowers, and yet I still really enjoy getting them too. ;P |

I know the car seats help illustrate this photo, but think I might have liked it better without them. The lower part of the photo is lovely. |

Good idea. The lighting detracts by not showing the whole composition. |
