Those highlights on the smaller petals look like pearls. I'm very glad you went dark with this - makes it a very interesting study of shadows and depth.

It is a little dark but I assume it's intended to be, and I like it that way. Maybe not soft enough for the voters, but definitely not sharp enough for a normal challenge here. I think it worked quite well.

The majority of this flower is in perfect focus, just a little bit of it is soft. It appears to be underexposed or that the shadow/highlight tool was used to pull the hightlights down too much.

I do like the composition and the flower though. :)

This is very pretty, but could have benefited from some levels adjustment - lightening.
