 I had my wife hold this flower up to the setting sun. It's a hand-held shot and I probably should have bumped the ISO to 400 to get the additional shutter speed because the flowers are a little blurry. Overall I'm pretty happy with it, I think it'll probably score around a 6.

I like the composition, but the focus could be a little sharper.

The sun fights for attention with the flower

Wonderful photo. The focus of the flowers though, seems a bit soft but makes it look almost like a painting.

The backlighting around the stem is nice but the area around the flowers looks odd.
