Thanks Macrothing :) this particular plant is so difficult to photograph because the flowers remain closed until the sun shines on them directly, explains the angle and some overexposure. Nice of you to look in and comment :)

I gave this a 5. I know this plant (or at least a few varieties of it) and whilst you've captured it quite well, the freesias(?) dominated in this shot, in my opinion. There were a few 'blown' areas on the freesias as well. Most importantly for this Challenge, the texture(s) were not captured to their full potential - again, my opinion. Difficult with the 'composition' and angle you have here, but perhaps just focussing in on the 'ice plant' and the unusual textures of that, plus the boost with the colors, may have made this even better in my opinion. edit:removed 'TN', also, left a comment on your other shot of this plant.
