I like the idea but I find the over exposure of the top of the vase draws the eye away from the subject

Beautiful and well composed, the colors are nice too, not sure about the texture of the background.

Fun idea but a bit too blown out. Perhaps it would have worked better with a coloured flower?

It would be even better if the background wasn't white. Overall, nice picture.

Nice and simple. Good representation of "the end." Love the earth tones against the white, but might look for a bit more separation between the white wall and the top of the vase.

Wonderful image that has an almost surreal and poetic beauty and evokes thoughts about the shortness of life and that beauty does not last. The lost freshness of youth, the disappearance of the spring in your footstep, the aches and the pains and the weariness of life taking it's toll. All these things encapsulated so vividly and competently, with so much verve and with so much feeling in this simple yet beautiful image. Exceptional detail, sharpness and luminance.

Awwwwwwww. Nice shot. A little less light on the background would have defined the upper edge of the pot.
