Great frost crystals on the leaf edges. Maybe placing the dark center of the plant out of the center of the shot would help a little.

I do get to laugh a little at the fact that you managed to squeeze a flower into the marco challenge. Im guessing this is pencil shorpener shavings? While th photo is too grainy, and not extremely exiting to look at I felt I still had to give you a couple extra points for you creativity with the "flower".

I like it, but it feels a little unbalanced, heavier on the left side.

Guessing by the title, you were going for the frost? However, you can't really tell that the photo even has frost if that's what you were going for. Honestly, I'm thinking that this will look too much like a flower to most people and you will be scored very lowly. It looks like a leafy lettuce type vegetation to me, but I could be wrong too. I don't like the use of black and white here. I think it adds nothing to the photo. Focus seems ok, but it's still hard to tell what we're looking at. ~Heather~

The focus here is off and the photo seems pixelated. Also the composition is a bit too centered for my taste.

The quality is really bad. Sorry to say that. Better luck next time.
