Nice composition with the 3 yellow flowers. In direct sunlight the harshness of light means a loss of fine detail and light tones in flower leaves. Having a fondness for abstract my I really likes the one closed bud just about to open. I think that could make a great subject with richer tones and colours. The blueish background works to contrast the yellows.

The top flower is a little distracting in this composition because it detracts from the progression you establish in your title. A tighter crop removing the top third of the photo would make this a bit stronger I think.

nice image here.. I like the colors, love the border.. Great composition & fits the challenge really well.. the sun looks a little harsh so the lighting is a tad brighter then what I'd like to see.. overall 9 for me.

good challenge subject but i think this is too over-saturated and contrasty

i am not a huge fan of flower pics
they usually tend to be very forgettable
i understand the concept you were going for, but its just not my favorite subject matter
