Very sensitive shot and good use of filters and technique.

Gosh, I can be stupid some days. Very nice shot! Subtle and very well taken. Nice use of filters to accent the flower. White on white is very difficult to pull out any details and there are lots here to see. Very nice work!!

Wow. Sometimes it is just completely obvious that this is a site of amateur photographers. IMO this is a gorgeous shot with lots of artistic merit. It could probably benefit from some post challenge editing to burn the flower so that it will stand out a bit more from the background. Lots of nice comments.. shows that there are quite a few ppl who can appreciate what you've done here. You obviously can't judge how successful your work is by the final score.

I absolutely love this. White on white and the soft focus work VERY well

Nice dreamy moody picture. Beautiful flower picture. Would work great as a wedding card, invite, or thank you card. Great depth of field helps to really bring out the single flower. Can't wait to hear how you did this shot.

Very nice high key shot, soft focus works really well. Effective use of b&w. 10

Maybe a little more contrast, but otherwise this is a beautiful photo.

I don't care for the high key approach here; it makes it look too washed out.

Nice soft focus shot, but I think it needs more contrast against the background, then again, I seem to prefer color over B&W, though I try hard to not score that way. 8 Rob the Swash

Umm... okay. I guess it would be a good shot for a wedding, but for me it's just screams "too much white!" Actually, it would be a very good shot for a wedding. yay you!

Creative use of soft focus and high key. Nifty! Add a lot of artistic interpretation to the flower. 9

Well, after looking at several great images, I have decided to give you the 10. Just wish I had the confidence to attempt such a light treatment. You captured the softness of the petals and the essence of the light.

I really like the white on white. 9 Good luck

reminds me of an old film - very soft, great light, charming.

I love the "formal" shadowy quality of this - it could stand some sharpening nonetheless

Very different and lovely.
