Very vivid colours. I don't think the central composition and square crop quite work in this photo. It does with another photo I've seen in this challenge, but only because that flower was highly geometric and colourful. In this, I just get an overwhelming blob of pink.

Amazing effect you've captured with those raindrops. You've brought out so much detail here.

I like the purple color here... the blue halo around the flower is an interesting problem.. I get this myself sometimes but it's not usually this pronounced... - setzler

the whitish splotches really detract from the image here... good focus and dof though

The blue fringing bothers me a lot, and it looks as if this flower is a bit sickly. Sorry!

could have been a really nice picture, but the inperfections on the petals, (water or whatever?) really ruin it.

Well it seem centered in the frame. The color is brilliant. I think the water spots add character and the blue line around the edge was a great touch. Over all I'd have to give you a 100% but failing that, 10.

Don't know if I like the drops on it... They kind of make the pedals look "dirty" or stained or something.

Weird post processing, but I kinda like it! I'm not sure it improves the look of the flower or makes a statement, however.

This is very centered, not an extremely appealing subject... and hard to tell if anything is really in focus... plus you have a blue line sorrounding the flower, did you try to push the saturation... not sure what would cause this, but I feel the photo looks like you took paints and painted it. I'm not big on a lot of post shot adjustments.
