A gorgeous floral-as-geometric-abstract. Amazing tones, textures, and I love the ever-so-gentle curves of white on white.

Wow! This is the kind of photo that really grabs me. I love the clean white on white look. I can see this one used by a high end designer decorating an urban, modern decor, couldn't you? If it were me handing out the top awards, this one would have gotten one! Congratulations.

love the composition on this image. a little sharper focus on the center of the flower and this would have been incredible.

This in out-and-out the best image of the challenge IMO. Love everything about it... composition brilliant, sharpness might be a little soft in the centre of the flower... and its very different from all the others in the challenge, which gets major browny points in my book... will probably ribbon, and will not be surprised if it wins a posthumous or something similar too.

beautiful... the composition is wonderful. I like the combination of the basket-like texture of the pistil(?) and the softness of the flower petals.

I like the chioce of B&W. The only Nit Pik is that the focus is off just a bit

Whoa! Here is an 'in your face' kind of shot. Looks like something other than a flower, but like a flower too. Strange; but I love it. 8

I love the tight crop, it's got an abstract feel to it.

On the page of thumbnails, my eye keeps getting drawn back to this photo. The use of white/gray is beautiful, and I love the perspective.
