Critique Club Comment:

First of all, as a photo I really like this though I agree with the point below that a different crop may have given this more impact. As is it's nice, but doesn't blow me away, which seems to be the way it was received.

For an "edge" challenge what I think this lacks is enough real edge. Sure, there are petal edges here, but they aren't really well defined, and even where they are they quickly disappear with the depth of field. Playing with it I believe a tighter crop and some rotation, placing the center off to the side a bit, highlights the edges more, but I can't say that it makes it a much "better image", just one that may have been better received for the challenge.

Tighter crop might have made more impact

I really like the colouring and detail in this.

Nicely done. Soft tones and just enough sharpness on the edges of the petals to highlight them.
