Lovely capture. The white background kind of takes away from the silhouette and definition of the flower.

Color and composition are wonderful in this. I think the light is perfect, too.

Unfortunately, the top white petal seems blown-out to me.

hihglights are too blown out, no contrast between the white petals and the background.

nice flower but the photo is not good in the right upper corner since it's blown out ... sorry :-)

Nice. Would have been a good candidate for having the edges sliced off and becoming a square crop.

Nice colours in the flower. Could use a bit more DOF maybe. Not fond of the overexposed background.
