| this is amazing..I am not a fan of florals, but you hit the button with this one, clear and great texture, and a master job with your lighting here. I like the reflection on the surface used to hold flower. This is dark |

Congrats on the top ten finish easily the best of the flower shots. I'm not normally a boarder fan but this one is perfect for the challenge, very minimalistic.

| A good shot here. Lighting and focus are great. I like the b/w conversion, very well done. There is very nice detail and texture to the flower. I think the size of it is good, definitely fits the challenge IMO. Compositionally, I'm not crazy about how the flower is framed so tight into the corner, I'm wondering if it were out just a bit, it might be a much stronger presentation? |

| The flower is too close to the borders for my tastes. It need a little room to breathe. It would be alright where it is if the white border line wasn't there. Otherwise, very nice. Good lighting. Good for the challenge. |

| Borders generally don't do much for me .. but as I look at this again, it dawns on me that without the border, I wouldn't like it so much. Oh, I'd still like it -- the exposure is technically very nicely done and the details nicely evident despite the small size. What strikes me is that the border -- particularly the pale line that separates the ground from the border proper -- supports and holds the subject neatly within the frame. Deliberate or accidental ... it works and complements the subject extremely well. An already fine image is elevated by its inclusion and that's a great touch! |

| I would prefer the flower to be more to the right and up a bit... seems very cramped in the corner. Not sure the frame adds to the shot, but doesn't seem to detract. Nice tones. |

| If you put the flower more on the thirds intersection, the image would be stronger then if you shoved it in the corner like you have done. |
