 I was snagged by the terrific backlighting of the late afternoon sun. I love the way it gave everything edges and textures and the explosion of color contrasts.

This is a different angle to a flower shot. A little to suit me but interesting. Good crop job. I like the positioning of the flower real well. Almost makes up for the darkness. Clear sharp focus. Good strong 8.

I really like the composition and colors of this. I think the darkness hides some of the details, but I still really like the picture. karmat

Very nice detail on the leaves but flowers look very indistinct (probably because they are underexposed rather than because of poor focusing).

I like the lighting, compositon and color but would have liked more focus on the flower which is the focal point of the shot. DPz

Nice detail on the leaves. The flowers look a little washed out. I like the black background. Jacko

nice detail, especially in the leaf on top.
Not sure I understand your composition choice.

Wow! I really like the colour and the composition here, and it's a great use of lighting. My favourite so far (although admittedly I'm not very far on with my voting)...
