This is what DPC is all about, sharing. Thank you for that.
For many Ribbon winners this becomes a secret and that is not what we want to see on DPC.
So again, Thank you so much and keep up on those great photos.

Nice complementary colours.
What is good in this picture?:
1. The colours
2. Nice flower.
What could you do better?:
1. Crop a bit from the bright leaf in the right side, making the red flower almost touch that side. In that way you apply rule of thirds wich is very good for the eyes to look at.
2. You probably only use one light source, In that way the shadows become to harsh, i.e. black. Maybe better to light a bit with another light on the leafs too.
3. I love flowers and flowershots but for many they get boring. It would maybe be good to add a "nose" to the picture or someones face :-)
4. The focus is a bit soft on the red. It is sometimes hard to focus on red things, specially when there is something green beside it. Autofocus, i've heard, uses green light.
5. Another thing about the focus, If you are trying to focus on both near and far subjects you should lower the speed and use a tripod.
6. The frame does imo not help. Maybe better to have it same colour as one of the leafs.
Hope that helps!

Beautiful night shot.
It is hard to focus right in the dark. IMO It would be better to cut a bit from the right side, i.e. the out of focus wood.

Nice picture though, good contrast and focus.
