This is Kari Ann, greetings from the Critique Club:

composition: a little off, no definite subject, which makes the eyes travel all over the frame, looking for something to focus on.

color:interesting find of colors. the oranges are offset well by the greens

contrast: flat, no real interesting contrasts

focus: good focus, can clearly state and tell what the plants are

depth of field: could have been used more creatively

lighting: flat

other: I hope i didn't come across as a putter-downer, but this image has almost nothing going for it. The subject, which I presume is the orange plant, isn't interesting. the colors are nice, but with no interesting interpretation of the subject, i feel this image is actually boring ina sense. These reasons are probably why your image scored so low. try revisiting this subject and looking at it from different angles, from a worms eye view to using the depth of field more uniquely. I hope you continue to grow your portfolio, and if you have any more questions, feel free to PM me anytime.

Is the title on purpose? If so, I guess it's kind of creative. The photo has very good focus and I like the contrasting colors.

Pretty colours, but not an interesting subject to my eye.
