Hey Jeff, you ALMOST qualified for my "No comments received during a challenge ribbon".

I didn't vote on this challenge and in fact, sadly, really never took the time to even look through it. What I really like - the deep rich color and spectrum of the green leaves and the way the light slides down the center of them. What I'm not so sure about is the composition - something seems just slightly out of balance to me, though I'm not sure what I'd do to change it. The red of the flower may be just a touch overexposed - don't know if you can change that by adjusting the reds alone in curves or not.
