Hello from the critique club

An appealing image that makes a significant contribution to the challenge.

A lovely image Luana. I like your composition and crop with the sharp stamens on the hotspot and the shallow DOF you’ve opted for with maximum aperture. The white background provides the high key aspect without any distraction to contend with its all working very well. The lighting is good too. I like the greenness of the stalk it provides a nice balance with those dominant reds. All in all Luana its a masterful job that I’m surprised didn’t score higher, well done.

This is a lovely image, but the focus on the stamen is tack sharp and the image varies in degrees of softness.

What a dynamic explosion of colour! This is an interesting composition with the red hearts dominating the right with all the other colours and detail of the left converging towards it. I assume you have rotated the zoom during the exposure? This usually works best where you have a strong dominant sharply defined centre but I like what you have done here with the off-centred composition, especially with the nature of these bright lights it works very well indeed. Wherever you’ve been, I for one would like to welcome you back...

I would have loved to have seen this cropped from the original into a square, from just under her jawline to just above her eyes... keeping the hand intact... I immediately thought that the model looks very much like Madonna's daughter Lourdes. She's a very classic beauty... whoever she is.
