 Another heart/love themed calla lily shot, with some level tweaked colouring this time. I didn't really have time to shoot for this challenge, as I've been working a lot lately, but I really, really wanted to enter this one... so I went out and grabbed some floral shots. I know it won't do well, but hey, why not? I bombed my last challenge, too :)

Wow Julia.
This is just screaming for a poem or words of wisdom/inspiration over on the right side of the image.

ohh sweetly done. but for that little black speck that could have been cloned out.

interesting shot, seems overprocessed to me though. I find the black spots in the stamen and the right side to be distracting. A solid effort for this challenge 5

Nice shot, the colors and black background work well together.

The lily is a elagant beauty. I like the composition and the looking down the throat aspect. IMO this picture would even be better if you would spot edit out all the little imperfections. Great work and good luck! 8

have you ever seen that one picture by mocabela called "the drowned ones"? it reminds me a lot like it. maybe it's just the tones... great work!

Nice shot - the colors are great. The shadows/lighting is very interesting.

Ecellent. One of the best I think.

Easily the best flower image I have seen so far but I have only gone through about 1/3 of the challenge. Nothing bad I can say about it, technically it´s very well done but I just don´t think it´s very interesting. Just to be clear though I like it.

Beautifully and creatively done. I like your presentation of love. Excellent piece.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

This is really strong, a flower that's so much more than a flower. The image and the framing both stand out. I'd wish the one sark spor upper right on the flower were not there, though... Very strong entry, hope it does well.

Wow, one of the very rare instances where the frame actually ADDS to the photo. Very nice subject and lighting.
