Very last minute entry. Yeah, it's another flower. Not much processing: levels, sharpen, resize, upload a few minutes before deadline. Maybe next month I'll have more time to devote to photography. Sigh.

116 flower pictures were entered in this challenge...I thought yours was the best and it will probably be the only one I vote on...of the flowers that is. The blue background makes the purple/violet petals really stand out. The green, yellow and orange really off-set it too. The crop is great as well as the focus...very, very nice. I hope you place well. Here's your 10...thanks for sharing your photo. My birthday is in September.
Composition = Good
Lighting = Great
Color = Great (Interesting choice in background colors. The green and yellow jumps out to much)
Creativity = Good
Concept/story = Good
Focus/DOF = Great
Subject = Good
Wow Factor = ok (slight variation on typical flower shot)
Marketability = Good (people like this kind of thing in adverts)
Overall = The color of the background struck me first, its not typical for a purple flower. Its definately not sky so a complimentary is usually used instead of a neighboring color. Its a good picture but rather typical.
