Greetings from the Critique Club

This works for the delicate challenge.

Your lighting doesn't seem to bad considering you were using natural lighting the shadows look about right.

Your placement of the flower doesn't do any good. It needs to be out of the center and off to the side. I would crop in from the right side and a little off the top as well. Get rid of that green plant distraction.

You have a few hot pixels on the flower that need to be retouched as well. A simple repair would fix a lot with this photo.

would have liked a tighter crop, and maybe the flower off-center. you could get rid of the whole left side and bottom, and have a much better photo I think.

Nice crisp image, but centered composition doesn't do much for the photo.

I think this would be better if the flower hadn't been in the exact center of the frame.

Its a nice picture of a flower, but just that.
Why did you think it was excellent? What turned you on about this image, and how would you enhance it?

This would have looked fantastic being cropped using the rule of thirds as is a really neat picture.
