Very pretty - I like the soft feel of this photo. My only criticisms would be that it lacks drama - filling the whole frame with the flower just doesn't have the same appeal as if there was a bit of negative space - and that the surface the flower is sitting on is a tad distracting.
Conceptually I adore this. The execution, however, is lackluster. Literally. There's no sense of glow at all, and I really need some luminosity in the image. I gave it a good score, for bravery if nothign else. Good luck.
