The HDR effect it a bit too strong - there's haloing happening all around the plant, and there are unsightly hard shadows cast onto the wall behind. The vase itself isn't that interesting or appealing, and the wall paper seems a very muted colour. The flowers themselves could do with some sharpness and richer colour palette. And compositionally a vase of flowers just isn't that interesting. Hope this helps.

Very impressive...I think "The Phoenix" might have been a better title but nevertheless a real eye opener of a photo, even for an aurora. Well done.

Pine Tree and Full Moon

Wow - how come your planet is so much closer to the moon than mine??! I can see why this got asked for validation just because it's such a 'wow' shot. The composition is great but there's a couple of things that I think could improve this shot...the lighting on the tree is just a bit too strong...feels like a softer light would have been less harsh...the other thing is that the moon could be just a tad more contrasty. Two relatively nitpicky points but I think with a re-edit this could really be a jawdropper of a photo. Well done!

Lilac Evening

I'm going to hazard a guess and wonder if this is Jeff and either the most fabulous DC evening or purple gradient mapping ;) In any case lovely shot. The colour is magical but doesn't look too artificial (well, maybe just a bit in the really dark clouds) and the reflections add plenty of interest.

I love this photo! Firstly it's original and that's a breath of fresh air, secondly the colour and detail is fabulous...really appealing and very much eye candy. Thirdly the shapes are ace. Great job on the lighting and DoF too. I hope this does well for you to reward your creativity.

Compositionally really good and appealing. Interest from her curves/nudity plus the great ink. Personally I'd like to see the colours a bit more punchy,

I find this shot infinitely more interesting that the blue - it's a bit of a shame that originality doesn't register higher with voters. Grats on another ribbon for your collection.

Well executed but a really cliche shot nonetheless
