Greetings from the Critique Club Janine
Quite hard for me to critique this image, Gerbera are my favourite flowers without question and I have used them a few times in challenges too.
You did quite well with this image in the Pastels challenge, just missing that coveted 6 by a whisker.
I think a couple of things could have pushed it over to the next level. The composition is quite tight. I think I'd like to have seen a bit more of the pale pink out petals.
Even though the histogram indicates it's properly exposed, I find it a bit flat. I think a slight levels/curves adjustment would pull the image back a bit and give it a bit more contrast. I'm sure you were trying to keep the soft pastel tones, but I think it's pastel enough to stand that sort of adjustment.
Very nicely focused. Quite DPC friendly.
Hope it helps a bit
Sarah
