Image looks a little dark at the focal point (the stem).

the colours in this are gorgeous, lovely and bold and very pleasing. the crop works brilliantly well, and i love the level of detail on the green areas. only slight reservations is that i wish the blue was a tad bluer, and the yellow petals were a bit more perfect looking (i.e. without the flecks of dirt and so on - unnatural but more fitting i'd have thought). i do like the luminescense of the petals though - a really nice touch.

My First Weighted Scoring System ΓΆ„ΒΆ; composition + technical 3/3, challenge 1/1, post processing results 1/2, ooooh factor 2.5/3, originality 0.5/1 = 8

Nice composition. There are spots on the petals I would have liked to see cleaned up and the grey overtone to the background seems to kill the happy sunny yellow of the flower.
