beauty, the concept of aesthetics, no better summed up in relation to the flower. (sorry to add a personal note, I believe I liked this shot, based upon the similarity to my entry in the winged things challenge, great minds as they say...)

Voted earlier coming back to comment.

I love the concept of humanizing the flower such that it is expressing a desire to belong and it stands all alone with the girl & her mother sharing a moment together in the distance. This is very different from just a floral still life. You use the flower to tell a story. This image has strong potential but needs work on compositional placement so that it really shines! There is a bit too much negative space that does nothing for the composition overall. I suggest zooming closer to have the mother and daughter fill the right half of the composition. Then the yellow tulip would dominate the left half with the stem coming out of the left bottom corner and it leaning it a little more towards the girl & her Mom. Bring those three characters to the front to the stage and you will have a top notch image that tells a strong story.
