I really like the fact that this shot invites you into it; there are nooks and crannies, planes, curves, and cool stuff. I love the colors; they remind me of pulp before it's rendered into paper. The initial colors are fading, but other colors are showing up and interacting interestingly. This contains a wealth of interesting, hypnotic details.

Ooh, stunning shot here; I love the texture on the petals, especially where the bone structure starts showing through. Nicely done.

I know how they feel. Almost gone and still beautiful. Outstanding capture. They look like a collection of butterflies.

If only we aged so well. You have so successfully produced a picture of elderly elegance. Superb.

Amazing shot! You know, it would be easy to add some bodies and antennae to make this look like a swarm of moths or butterflies! It's half-way there already.

Flowers are beautiful in full bright bloom, but as your photo demonstrates, beauty can be found at all stages of the life cycle if you know how to look. I think that probably applies to humans as well & maybe even to everything...
