Robert - I really liked this one a lot - the softness and smoothness of the background really accentuated the flower. The one thing I noticed was some apparent artifacts from the HDR on the black eye of the flower - as if there are some unexpected magenta areas along the rim of the 'eye'

Nice and crisp. Something about the crop is bugging me, but I'm not sure what to suggest for improvement. Great colours, and the background texture is nice

The flower almost seems to be floating. Detail is nice in the foreground and background is complementary.
