Your photo is not bad, the only thing I can find wrong with it is...
1. It's a flower = no imagination.
2. It's a white and or black background = no imagination.
I think of flowers as something easy and pretty to coast on for a decent vote and with the right setup you can really crank'm out (note to self, order greenhouse) We almost have a flower show as it is and I just want to kick people out of their safety nets into so real challenges.
I hope you understand what I'm trying to impart without malice because it isn't.
Good luck in the challenge..
BTW, I gave you a 6.
