| Fabulous image! Rather more Photo-realism than Impressionism, but still a wonderful take. |

| The only photo in the challenge to have epitomised the purpose of the brie. you have not replicated an impressionist painting through tacky filters, but have created the impressionism in a photograph through its constituent parts. |

| I love the fact that you have so successfully nailed the theme without resorting to the use of filters in post-processing. Don't get me wrong, I'm not criticising those who have used such filters, but I'm full of extra admiration and delight at the creativity and beauty of your image, which uses none. |

| I want more light at the edges, where your petal-strokes disappear in shadow. But otherwise this is spectacular. |

| Wow, that took a lot of work! This would be such an awesome photo if the purple background leaves didn't overpower the photo so much. Perhaps if the wall in the back was white and you used the white petals for the background and/or got a little more seperation....I actually hate that I'm not giving this a 10 for effort, but I just can't... |
