 Centered composition is tough to have enough interest in the background to carry an object smack in the middle of the photo. We'll see if this has it - a bit of an experiment, taken at the last minute.

Great sharpness and tones, wonderful bokeh. There are too many drops for me as they distract my attention, and detract from the image

Nice added touch with the water droplets. It makes this one stand out from the other flower entries. 8

Wonderful shot. The water beads, the centering, the DOF and the lighting all work here. Not unique but Very classic.

I like the water droplet and the wide DOF to keep most parts of the flower in focus. Great shot.

overall pleasing color and composition, the OOF flowers add much to the picture. a bit too much drops here and too regularly arranged. the drop in the center makes that spot look blurred. a bit of noise/sharpening artefacts in the background.
