I think this is a really great capture. You only get the chance at this kind of photo once or twice a year at best. The suggestions I would have here (and I could be wrong) are the outline of the flower/stem looks to suffer from some sharpening (the hard edge). I saw a post in the tis/tricks forum by librodo that had a link to "Luko's sharpening". Luko used a process that gave some definition and pop to the colors, but not the harsh edge. May be worth playing with... Also, and this you may have done, but not posted, I wonder what it would look like with the snow as the background for the flower. Overall, nicely done I wish I could get a capture this good! :-)
Very nice. Love the texture in the petals and snow. Would have been a 10 if you could have gotten an all dark or all snow background. I give this one a 9.
Very pretty pictures. Nice use of DOF to seperate the main subject from the rest of the image. Nice tectures in the main objects really draws my eye away from the white (snow?) areas in the background. <6>
