 I wanted to create an image that looked as though you could pick it off the page but, however, didn't look unbelievable.

Lovely, simple, but unusual perspective - really makes use of that wonderful spiral at the centre. Shame the leaves are so tattered/ chewed. 8

a closer zoom and crisper focus would definitley make this one better, the dmaged leaves take away from the symmetry of the plant. nice pic, though.

Nice composition, but too blurry.

This is one of my favorites. It would look great as a magazine cover because of the placement on the page, but also because the colors and textures are so vivid. It would have been nice had a little bug not gotten to the leaves since I would think a gardening magazine of any kind would try to feature a near-perfect plant on their cover...unless of course the cover article is about how to deal with plant-eating bugs. LOL Anyway, I think you fit the criteria of the challenge very nicely with this shot.
