Beautiful rose but I'm not seeing a connection to the Prince song really other than the title and thus not seeing the connection to the 80's. I even checked the official Purple Rain album cover art to make sure I wasn't misremembering the imagery on there and thus missing a connection.

Technically a lovely image, meeting of the challenge, not so much. I gave a 6 due to the photo itself, had there been some way it met the challenge (in my estimation) I'd have likely given higher.

my first thought on this one was negative and reaching ... but after giving it some thought: it is sharp, beautiful, and creative. 7

Beautiful flower, other than the title what is The 80's about it? Struggled with my score...10 for the picture but minus some points for (stretching for a)theme...

great as a flower shot, but not really relevant to the challenge in my opinion...it doesn't depict the 80's except for your title
