Comment. Sorry, but I don't think this is going to quite make it. It's a pretty awkward crop making it hard to figure out what's what, and focus seems to be in the wrong place (but it's hard to say for sure because I'm not sure what you were actually trying to focus on). Also looks to have significantly blown areas on the main subject, what I assume are the flower petals. The background is also very noisy. Could be worth trying Wikipedia:Picture peer review first. --jjron (talk) 15:00, 29 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
