| Thank you for all of the nice compliments and constructive remarks. This plant has a very long curving stem and so I tucked the flower up into this ivy to hold it still so I could take its picture - wasn't comfortable blurring the background, didn't want to get disqualified. Thanks again for the comments. Since this was my first entry, I have a little more idea of what to look for next time. |

| I love orchids! The framing is uncomfortable on this, though... I would have tried a horizontal composition. |

| Well lit. Bits of the flower are chopped from the frame. Taken from a different angle, or at a different time of day may have sorted out the busy background. |

| no, no, not just another flower shot to be whatever you want it to be. Red, curves, nature.....not original enough as a straight shot like this. |

| nice shot, I know there are a few who will say they don't like the flower shots, but I love flower shots! Nice color and texture, I feel you captured the theme well. The only flaws are a little out of focus at the top and the framing is a little off. I would have had more of the flower showing on the top and right side. Plus maybe a little more blur to the background. |

| A shallower depth of field would improve this image to me. That would put the background out of focus a bit and could be accomplished with a lower fStop (aperature.) |

| this is a very interesting flower. nice shot. good focus and composition. i'm not much of a fan of generic flower shots, but this is well done. |

| Nice photo. Would have liked to have seen you avoid the blown highlights and the unnatractive background. The lower left petal is close to perfect in exposure in my opinion. I scored it high. |

| Gorgeous color and lighting, the orange thing in the upper right corner distracts me just a little bit. |

| nice color and angle. good detail in the lines. |

| Great detail and near perfect focus, but it feels suspended in mid-air. Maybe a curvey stalk would help? |

| The detail you have captured in this photo is very nice. The background in this shot is blurred out nicely with the shallow depth of field. You may want to try this photograph again sometime with a black piece of paper behind the flower to really bring the flower out. Even thought the background is blurred, it is 'busy' with activity... I think I can see an orange garden hose maybe? |

| Pretty flower shot. Bit too tight on the right side, and top petal. |

| Lovely, but would have been better if the top-left of the flower was also in focus. |
