Greetings from the Critique Club
First Impressions:
This is a beautiful shot and very colorful, the colors really grab my attention.
Technical (Comp, lighting, color, focus):
Your composition is pretty good; the only thing I would nitpick at is that there is more space above the roses then below. If you are going to center the subject you may want to make it uniformed all around, also maybe switch the order so it goes small to large or vice versa, again this is just nitpicking. As mentioned in the comments the leaf showing is a bit out of place and it would be nice if it were gone.
The lighting is well done and the colors are rich and vibrant. They do not look over saturated on my monitor at all. The whole shot is nice and clear with great focus and the reflections are excellent.
Challenge:
Meets the challenge as roses are definitely made in nature :)
Artistic/Emotion:
Not an emotional shot but the colors and reflection is nice and artistic.
Summary:
A well done shot all around but in the end it is a shot of flowers and it doesn't really bring anything new to the scene. I think this scored around where it should, maybe it should have been a bit higher but I think many voters are just bored of flowers (those 1's, 2's and 3's are likely from those voters who never want to see another flower shot.
Excellent score for your 4th entry and congrats on a new personal best. You have talent and I will be looking forward to what you show us in the future, keep it up.
