I like this. The precessing has given it a different look and I like it. But I have to ask, what is up with what looks like a stuck blue/white pixel in the red area above the center flower? If it was a stuck pixel you could have exited it out I believe.
I don't think there is equal visibality here and IMO does not meet challenge. Own rule is not to vote rather than to vote a good entry down. I leave this to the trolls! Good luck
when I am looking at this I see the first flower (the one in focus) then I see the ones in the background...to me my eye isn't seeing them (all three) equally. that given...you have a very beautiful shot...I do love the background
While I can see the three elements, and can understand what you were trying to achieve with this photo, it does not really meet the challenge. The front flower, in the most prominent position, and in focus, is clearly the subject of the image, while the two other flowers are supporting elements. The idea of this challenge was that the three elements were equal. Having the centre placed flower in focus, with the oother two, on the line of third, but maybe OOF, would have met this. However, I feel your score will suffer as people will think that one flower is definitely 'more equal that others"
This is a lovely photograph with very nice colors and soft lighting.
There are clearly 3 elements, however, they are not all equal. The flower facing the camera clearly takes the most importance and even the title cannot reconcile that fact.
I am still giving this a 6, because I do like the photo
