It is a flower image and sure to suffer voter backlash for those that feel people shoehorn flowers into every DPC challenge and feel they should not in this one.
The angle chosen for this shot is close to a "snapshot" angle and that could hurt voting too. You might consiider a strait-on shot from flower level. The lighting on the top of the petals of the foreground blossom are overexposed. The background does not add a lot to the composition either so you might want to consider a tighter crop to highlight the flower better. |
