The center of the subject is really the drop with the reflection of the petal. I am playing a bit with the compositional lines, which I know are not perfect to compliment a balance throughout the photo. unfortunatly I am unable to remove the black on the left. oh well. expecting nothing too much.

Well, Chris - I gave your image a 6- I really think the votes went to circular objects right smack dab in the center, which your is but too many don't see it that way ( mine as well ) . Nice work !
try something like this with the raindrops more defined for the water challenge, possibly in black and white. the composition is good, but the focus and contrast are a bit off. 7
