| Well, you proved you can do the bee/flower shot when you want to. Nice DOF and focus. I like the colors a lot, with the slight touch of pink in the background. |

Guess who!!!!!!
First Impression: Am thinking there wasn't enough pink here and whilst I do like the background I think there might be too much that doesn't add to the overall image.
Composition: Maybe a square crop would have helped emphasise the focal point here
Subject: Yup, a nice bright pink but maybe not enough of it for the challenge? Oh, and there is a Bee in the shot, your getting too mainstream for my liking!
Technical: Whilst I love the background there is quite a lot of noise in it. Something I've started playing around with is resize to twice the final size, give the entire image a run through neatimage or similar then sharpen (the plain sharpen) a couple or 3 times resize to the final size and maybe try a light sharpening. Messing around with the amounts can often leave the background nice and smooth with a sharp subject.
Final thoughts:Loving the title Don and didn't have this down for one of yours. Personally, whilst it scored slightly above your average (unrecognised genious) vote I prefer your off the wall images much more.

| wondering why this scored so low, I liked how it came out, only thing I can think of is a tighter crop. |

| I would have placed the flower a little more to the center of the image (on vertical). |
