I wish I knew what to say about this image but I don't. Was it intentionally done this way? I rather not comment on this until I see your description of the image once the challenge ends and then we could go from there.
Was your comment intentional? I know you took the time to post it, but I'll need more evidence than that...
I have been trying from time to time to get the brown with a shot that I like, and you make it seem so easy. I love the way you contrasted the fluid forms of the spent flower with the pixilated geometry of the sensor noise, very clever.
It's very dark and noisy, get the feeling it's taken with a mobile phone camera. Get a Can't really tell what it is either. I am sorry for my low score, but this picture just doesn't do it for me. 3

It surely is very, very lovely, dark and deep but I long to get a better glimpse of it to put it in my mind's flower drawer! Otherwise it might just get the meaning lost in a thousand of other thoughts.
I'm afraid I just don't get what you are aiming for here, and viewing it without that knowledge or understanding, I can only base my vote on the aesthetic appeal the photo holds for me - unfortunately in this instance, not a great deal. Looking forward to returning after voting to read any comments you may have left explaining your take on the challenge.
