Exposure of the flower is spot on. The falling rain effect is very good. One of the best flower shot in this challenge.

Interesting shot. I'd like to see the flower in focus though. Good still capture of the rain.

Great composition, beautiful use of color and negative space. Seems the focus could be just a smidge sharper - might be the water droplets making it seem slightly hazy though. Very nicely done. I gave a 6

I really like this, but the flowers just don't really seem to be in sharp focus.

like how well you can see the falling rain. i think the flowers are a bit out of focus tho. but by using the rule of thirds to create negative space, i think you have succesfully made an otherwise common subject (atleast in this challenge) interesting.

Great capture here. There must have been no breeze that day because you had the shutter open long enought o get tha rain trails yet the flower never moved and is still in focus.

Sure seems like a lot of backlight for such heavy "rain" lol. Nice shot though

I like the long rain drops & the simplicity. The plant seems to be tilted some.

This reminds me a lot of another rainy lily shot from a challenge some time back. I loved that one too! Great job!

nice colors and composition and crispness and clearness and clarity.
I can't think of anything else begining with C :-)

very nice lighting... even if it happens to be staged. Perfect shutter speed for the drops.

I would have cropped this closer, if only to make the rain appear more believable. From the arc of the rain it appears this is some kind of sprinkler.

very cool capture of the rain and nice composition.

Beauticul action shot of the water. The black background makes it really stand out. The lighting is nice on the flowers, but they could be in better focus. 6

Another wet flower shot. I like it a lot though. The drops streaking in different directions through the shallowish dof make it for me, the flower is a bonus.

The way have captured the rain has created an exquisite effect. Top ten for sure. Good luck!

This is such an amazing shot! I love this composition and your slow shutter speed! VERY cool! 10

Yes, very nice... real rain or a hosepipe! ( :-) ) Either way great capture, good backlight and the perfect shutter (1/60?)

Lovely in its simplicity. The gold of the lilies against the black is a nice contrast. Very geometric with the angle of the rain.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

This angle doesn't flatter the flowers much, but it does highlight the intensely interesting rain streaks. Nice!
