I struggled to find something for this challenge, but i am very happy with the outcome. The flower is an orchid, i thought this was perfect to do a simple shot. I liked it because of its unusual petal shape at the center of the flower, i liked the shadows it created.
The lighting was an experiment for me, the flowers on the left were almost at opposite angles to the flowers on the right. I didn't do the lighting from directly above me because of the reflections on the water droplets, so i used a reflector to get light to the right hand side.
Im hoping this shot does well, i really like it and i have my fingers crossed for a new PB.

The colors seem very unnatural in this lighting. Perhaps you could have worked a bit more with adjusting the exposure value and boosting up the colors a bit?
