Hello Kita,
Greetings from the Critique Club!
This is a lovely photo. The flower is clear and pretty, and I love the way you've included dark and light areas in the photo. The depth of field is very well used, and the flower finds itself sharp while the leaves and background are blurry, giving attention to the flower very effectively.
I also like where the flower is positioned in the frame. It's not quite in the center, so it adds some mystery to the shot. In fact, if you moved it even more to the side, it might improve the photo even more.
For more improvement, I might suggest experimenting with different kinds of lighting. This lighting is clear, making the flower visible, but it's also a bit harsh. So it might be worthwhile taking this or a similar flower to various parts of your house and outside to see what kind of light you can capture that might be more moody or mysterious. You can even try putting light behind it, under it, or in other unique places. I recommend first taking it outside in full shade on a sunny day, or outside when the sky is cloudy. Good luck!
Thanks for letting me look at a lovely photo! |

Wow, Kita, this is a beautiful flower shot! The exposure is just right, as is the focus. You're good. |

Another flower (urgh). Not being a flower fan, take this with a grain of salt. The flower isn't all that interesting and the DOF isn't helping much. More vibrant color would have helped but still wouldn't have made it a great shot in my opinion. |

Nice DOF but there's too much flash. |

Lovely photo of a flower, but the lighting seems a bit harsh to me. Maybe more diffused light would help? I dunno. Still, I like it. |

Not a bad shot, doesn't have much of an interest point though. |
