Lovely composition and lighting. I even like the frame in this case (I don't like frames as a rule!)

processing seems a bit strange for some reason to me. I am not a fan of the big border here. the pink color is very nice.

Great colours! The black background and frame really set it off. 7.

WOW! My favorite flower in the whole world, photographed to absolute perfection! I hope everyone is loving your frame as much as I do. They normally tend to kill big frames -- but in this case I think it really adds to the overall look of the photo. This is one of my favorites so far, and that's saying alot since there are so many amazing ones.

Composition: 7 - Well composed, with just enough space around the flowers, with them creating interesting shapes in the frame.
Technical: 3 - Looks way too soft and too compressed. You had 200kb to work with in this challenge but you only used about 60. The black background is also a splotchy grey which looks to me like you've not calibrated your monitor properly. Lighting etc on the plants is good though.
Creativity: 4 - Nothing special about flowers on a black background.
Appeal: 4 - Nice vibrant colours but the border is too large and the compression/softness really spoils it imo.

Overall Calculated Average Score: 4
