A very nice picture. I love the lightness that the web adds to the shot. Takes it from "another nice narrow DOF flower picture" to one with added punch. 8

Very pretty shot. Love the DOF to isolate the subject and create depth with the web. The flower itself seems a tad overexposed/oversaturated. Maybe exposure tweaks in the RAW stage or layer masks in p-shop would help? Just my opinion, nice shot nonetheless

great capture! Was it set up or did you find it that way? Perhaps a bigger DoF could have improved the image, but nice job.

Nice strong composition, even if a little unfocused where it matters (to me)

Nice challenge interpretation. On my monitor it looks as if it's slightly out of focus

Lovely color flower. I think a great depth of focus would help to orient the viewer better. The flower could be shrper too.

I like the idea of a natural image, with an orange splash of color...
