First impression: Surprised this image didn't place higher as it's very dpc friendly.
Artistic: Love the Fibonacci spiral and the tiny drops of water, and the contrast really makes the colours pop. Good comp and lush textures. I think your commenter on the roses being overdone may have a point. Still it's a lovely image.
Technical: Almost wonder if you used too short a DOF? Most lenses aren't at their best wide open, often their sweet spot is a few stops down *whew try saying that 5 times fast! :-)*
Overall: Very pleasing shot, sad that it didn't do better. Maybe try reshooting at different fstops and slow your shutter speed accordingly. Never hurts to mess around and see what else might work.
Beautifully executed, thought this was one of the better flower shots in the challenge. Suprised this didnt do better. Congrats on the Top 20 placement =)
