These were a lot nicer looking before the wind caught them on the way from the store to the car. Oh, well - decided to make the best of it, we'll see how they do.
I wanted to leave a bit more of the main stem leading the eye down to the pot, but there was a nasty overexposed spot on the edge of the pot that really dragged the eye down.

Lovely subject. Something about the lighting is taking away, rather than adding to, this image. Light seems a little harsh and the details are getting lost somewhat. JMO of course. Good luck in the challenge.
Interesting shot. Beautiful flowers. Nice sharp focus, black background works well. I think you'd be better with an odd number of flowers. Two is confusing... I'm not sure which one to look at. 1 or 3 would be better for me. Overall nicely done.
