I like the photo, the contrast between yellow and black is always great. You will probobly get voted down because the description of the challenge said a black object, this is a yellow object with a black background. On a different challenge this would've been a top 10.

Love the composition. Good take on the challenge to use a bunch of black but still have some punch with a lovely, saturated color. the tiny water drops on the petals are a nice touch, also. 8

I like it, but I woulld have left a little more yellow around the center of the flower, and rotated it until the torn petal were off-frame.

Good composition. I would have liked to see this in black and white.

Stunning! The negative space works well here and the flower just pops against the background.
