Please no centered subjects :-(

Poetic title, I like it. The photo itself is pretty good IMO. Seems to me too centered, maybe slightly soft on the focus. (6)

Lovely lighting

You misspelled "darkness" in the title...

I like this one, but I think the yellow flower and the other stem in the back takes away from the main flower, just my thoughts.

Nice lighting angle that works well for this type of challenge. There are sure to be voters giving it a low score because it is a flower. Don't know if the dandelion on the right adds much to the composition. You might consider applying the rule of thirds with this type of shot where there is a lot of black space. If you were to apply that rule then put it on the right side so the flower faces toward the area with the most black space.

I'm not a flower fan, and was pleased to see not quite as many flowers in this challenge. However, your title & beautiful simplicity have convinced me that this was a great entry.

Great Title and idea.

lovely lighting. would have been nice if the right side of the flower were lit a little, though. otherwise, nice job.

Would be better, to me, if the subject wasn't in the center.

I'm wondering why you chose to shoot this as a horizontal... A piece of aluminum foil might have helped to reflect some flash and fill the shadow at the center of the flower.
