This is a perfectly nice picture of a lovely flower, I wonder why it scored so low? One thought: what if you had reversed the photo so the flowers face right. A lot of people prefer that orientation without even being aware of it. In the west we are programmed to read a page and an image, also, left to right. Right to left is against the norm and slightly jarring. Just a thought -
