| Good composition - perhaps too good, because my eye is lead away from your hand to the flower on the end, so the "touch" is kind of missing for me. |

Nice lines, good undistracting background.
Hmmmm, on second thought, is that background the GRADIENT thing mentioned in the forum thread that got all controversial about EddyG's smoke image? I think so...
While looked nice at first glance, it began to look unnatural after gazing at it for a minute, especially around the hand, because of the darkness of the edges of the hand in contrast to the light background.
Mostly just a weird transition, but also the lighting on the hand is flat, and the flowers are casting shadows characteristic of an ON-CAMERA FLASH. I wish people wouldn't use the builtin flashes for their challenge submissions. They just don't make the colors and textures good.
I will say that the background IS very well separated from the foreground. Clearly a careful job of separation there, so some points for that. |

| The background's color doesn't help the subject's colors... |
