I think a smaller crop of the flower (if possible) would have made this a much stronger image.

Looks really eerie inverted! the centre of the flower almost looks like a spider. Good effort

Strong composition, love to see a black flower. My faveroite element however is the branches in the background. Good luck.

xcellent clarity, more focus on the flower might help it more.

I like how the blue pops off the black. Nicely composed

I like the delicate look of the flower, and the tones on the petals.

The flower itself is amazing. How did you do that. The background around the flower is a bit distracting.

IMO the blossom is superb but brought down by the background. A tighter crop on the blossom alone would have scored higher from me.

The flower itself looks great. Might have looked even better on a plainer background.
