CC: -morning to you BNC
Fits The Challenge-Yes very well. Flowers are one of the most popular cliches.
Composition-centered and it works here well. THIS is the main and only subject in the shot.
Background-Nothing to remark about really. It's a nice complimentary color of blue.
Digital Processing-Nice. The flower has some natural white lines that are a little bright but not bad. The lighting is coming from the bottom and it's a bit strong.Good focus and colors.
My Opinion-Nice work.I personally like the shadows but can see that better lighting would of improved the score.
Thanks for posting this colorful flower for CC.

Its a great picture it would be a bit better is you eithe got closer or out more flowers in the image. you have a lot of negative space but other than that good job.

wow, nice effect. I think this is an excellent example of what the challenge was all about. Take an overdone subject and do something technically different with it. Very Creative.

Powerful image but the strong shadows detract. If you could soften these I think it would help the image.
