the dendelion shadow makes this shot. Great! 7

I beleive it's the colors that threw me off here the most, they semmed dull and lifeless. Maybe your white balance is off. You might want to ask for an in depth critique so you can get someone's opinion that knows more about theat subject than me. I wasn't too enthused with the overall composition, but my have not noticed that if the colors had been more pleasing.

Adding a hair light to the dandelion would have helped to separate it from the lily. I don't care for the warm color cast. A slightly closer crop would have rendered this an abstract (which I like, but they often don't do well at DPC). I really like this concept.

i find the seedling breaking away interesting. your composition looks like a surreal penguin's head to me.

Nice textures & light effects. I wish there was more light on the dandelion head, but that's being picky.

lovely macro, the dandielion is a bit lost against the lilly unfortunately.

I like this image, I just wish there was more color and a little better lighting.

a well done shot but it needs more depth of field

what a funky abstract! 9

wow, great image. It lacks in sharpness and the shadow of the thing in front of the flower is really distracting. Use some cross lighting to fix that, that is use a light source from the left and the right both at 45 degree angles. If that was just sharper and that shadow wasn't there this would be my pic for number one. mabey use a unsharpen mask next time

The dandelion shadow is very cool on the lily petal. Nice photo.

cool

The lilly is very un- lillylike.

Lost too much of the dandelion detail in the white of the lilly.

I had to look at the title to figure out exactly what I was looking at. The pistal on the lily made me do a double take :) I would have like to have seen a bit more depth of field so slighty more in focus in the frame. Nice though.
