The photo is out of focus, so a bit blurry. If the focus were a bit sharper, it would look awesome. :)

The colors in this are nice, however it's hard to define which challenge it'd be more appropriate in. violet is a mix of both warm and cool colors, so it's kind of cheating. :D

On the formal side of this, it's not terribly interesting of a composition. I'm not sure which flower --if any-- is important, which when combined with the title makes this image easy to pass up.
