Sorry about the wait for your critique, this is coming out of the backlog!
Personally I'm not a big fan of flower photos, on this one though I rather like the wide range of colours and the water droplets forming. That being said I think you got hit hard for the simple reason of not having the moon as the main subject. To me this is more a flower shot. It's good for a flower contest but doesn't fit in so much with the moon theme. Good luck in the rest of 2010!
