Greetings from the CC.
Well you get points for creativity! This is odd, certainly makes you look a second time. This image does not really say 'beautiful flower' but I am sure it could be used to advertised something somewhere, technically it is a very good photo, clear, sharp, good colors. I find the central compostion a little flat, might like to see it moved up or down a little, but given how you got this image I think you did pretty well.
(the other thing is if you left more room you could have room for text, esp cuz I think it is a stock kind of image)
hope that helps

I can't believe this came in at 121. I gave you a 10 for this shot - it was great to see such a creative and different take on the challenge! |

Totally reminds me of the lips from the rocky horror picture show... and that my friend is a Good thing...
I think this is brilliant and it is nice to see that level of creativity. You're right its way out of the box ..but kudo's to you for doing it. I didnt vote but you would have scored high from me.

I was also one of your 9 votes. LOVE the creativity here. There are just a couple of nitpicky technical issues with the shot, but otherwise I thought it was great. Very underrated IMHO. Nice work! :-) |

I was one of your 9 votes, I think its so sad that people cant think out of the box when voting and at least vote also on technical merit, your composition, originality and lighting alone warranted a much higher score than the people that gave you 1's, 2's and 3's. Take solice in knowing that you worked hard on this and came up with a very wonderful photo. Job well done, regardless of your score. |

I would have given it a 9. It's beautifully executed and incredibly creative. It's also jarring and unsettling, which contradicts the flower stereotype. My guess is that the voters had been lulled into a hypnotic state, and shocked awake when they came to it. Some people just don't like to be shocked. I do; and I love this shot! |

Just for the record, it got a 10 from me. I am one who loves and appreciates creativity...of the idea, the effort, compilation of making it all come together. Keep going girl!! There are a lot who DID get it and love it for just what it is!! |

I thought this was very creative and well executed. I gave this one an 8 because I thought it was truly different. I like the surreal feel to it. I think the reason most people did not score it higher is because there is a stereotype attached to flowers, and they may have found this one to be far from the stereotype. |

I just don't get the people around here... this should have done much better, but creativity doesn't tend to get you too far in these parts. MUUUUCH better than the same ol' boring flower shots you can open up any nature magazine and see. Nice job and keep the "outside the box" type photos coming, I for one appreciate them.
look at all those 1's, 2's and 3's... people, open up your eyes! |

121!
You know I think you were robbed! THE most creative of the challenge, and a terrificly surprising image - I'd give you a ribbon if it was just up to me.

killer effect - but it ends up such a surprising image I'm speechless - well, and it's kinda late.
really nice work - I'd use photoshop and not enter it - I admire this work a lot! 8 for now |

Wow.
::blink blink::
Um, this is a little weird. Not sure I care for it, but I guess that's not really the point.
The transition between 'lips' and 'petals' is really well done, and the colors and lighting are good, and the concept is quite original.
I just don't care for it too much.
Scoring for technicals and originality - 9.
Scoring for appeal (to me) - 4.
Overall - 7. |

Original idea but a little freaky, not sure why but there's something I don't like about it, it kind of scares me :( 7 for creativity. It counts for me. |
