 This flower is absolutely not a snowdrop. "Snowdrop" is the name
of an object (a glass flower) that plays an important role in Neil
Gaiman's Stardust.
With the sun reflecting in a drop of sap, this flower looked like
candy, but I had to use the flash to make the effect visible on
the picture.

This does not meet the challenge - inanimate but not an arranged composition of objects.

Image is too confusing.

This is a nice photo with lots of colour and great depth of field, but could do with a bit more information as it were. It's a bit chaotic and confusing for a still ife. Very good for an abstract macro...

The photo is pretty confusing as to what your subject is.

I gave this photo a 1 because it didn't seem to me to fulfill my expectation of a "still life," a classic form of artfully arranged objects. Call me narrow minded but that's the way I see it. There are other issues like blown highlights and overly soft focus, but if it were on subject, I could have given it 3-4 more points.
