My 2nd entry. Woot!!

I have this ridiculous flute in my apartment that is completely useless to me. I played it in middle school band and I hated it. Ah, the 80s..... Anyway, as I was attempting to think of a composition for this challenge, I knew I wanted to get some use out of it but didn't know what I wanted to do. Finally today, I just tied it to a chair today and snapped away. If you look closely, you can see the reflection of my hand holding a white pieces of construction paper and also a television in the background.

a tad on the dark side and I would really like to see that flower pop more.

nice idea, but the colors are a bit soft

Great idea, now if you could have gotten the background to be a true white and controlled the color temp (white balance) better, this would have some potential. JMO of course. The subject is well focused. Good luck in the challenge.

The lighting could be much better. Mabye a different backdrop too. And then I think this idea could be a winner!

It is a wonderful sentiment in your title. Love the idea of the closeup on the flute and the metaphor of the flower. The lighting needs some help - the flower probably could use a little more emphasis and the shadow takes up a great deal of the image and does not add a lot

Nice idea and composition, perhaps the flower could be a little brighter
