Hue/sat levels, curves. Chose this, but I've taken soooo many photos in 05 that I need more than 15 days to truly pic what I would consider my best

Depth of field problems here... I know the one blossom is in focus, but I think I would have shot this from a different angle so that the blossom above the one in focus didn't jump out at me as being so out of focus.

Interesting shot, but not quite sharp where I would expect it to be.

For me, this image is a touch on the dark side and I'm wishing that the DOF had been a bit greater. The focused bud is obscured by a backgrounded flower that is not in focus and for me, this makes the focused portion of the image hard to find. I think I would have preferred a more simplified view of the flowers. JMO

Something's not quite right with the composition here, a bit out of balance, but the colours and the depth of field are great. 6/10

If more were in focus, I'd enjoy looking at this image longer.

Not fond of the DOF, front blossom that is not in focus is really distracting

Nice color shades. The one dark petal (dead?) on the middle right seems to draw my eye though. Good job, good luck!

Hard to comment uniquely on so many flower phoots. This one lacks the lighting needed to really stand it out, along with a weak compositional presentation.

pretty purple - but a tad too shallow in focus

I really like the lighting here. The darkness is really nice and makes the colour really stand out.
