		| | Your title seems to have a rather disconnected relationship with the accompanying picture. Is that the flower's natural coloration? I think that you should have gone for a more abstract macro shot of just the brightly colored portion contrasted against the surrounding white petals. |

		| | Lovely, soft light. I don't know which special effect you used to get the slightly mottled effect, but, I think it worked really well. A few jaggies around the edges, but, they don't detract much. In fact, that's probably nitpicky. 7 |

		| | A nice flower shot. Needs a little more "pop" in the colours and the whites to make it stand out, and the background elements (another flower head?) are a bit distracting. A very tight macro of the coloured area would work *really* well with this flower I'm sure. 
 Focus is good, and composition isn't too bad though. Keep shooting beauts like these and have fun!

		| | There is something on the white areas that look like filter that I don't appreciate much because Orchid "white" color is one of the most beautiful whites there is and this has rather strange grey dots in it... |

		| | I dont know what effects have been applied here, but I assume that a dreamy impression was the goal. I feel that the effect may need to be a little stronger, as, at a first glance, I thought this was just over sharpened. |

		| | Looks like some vicious over sharpening. Leads the eye well onto the subject but not terribly good light and tone. 5 |
