I like the unique style you have there. The background is really ominous and makes you wonder what's behind the flower. I have one suggestion in that the spec of white at the very right of the picture is kind of distracting. Almost seems like it doesn't belong way over there away from the flower. The 2 white specs below and near the flower are interesting though, at least in my mind. Overall a cool effect though. Keep it up.

I like the simple, uncomplicated look of this shot. The flower is nicely in focus and its position makes a good composition. White spots on the right are kind of distracting.

Pretty cool image! I guess my vote goes to removing the white spots.

I like the idea for this shot. Many of the flower shots on here are of vibrant, beautiful flowers, and it is interesting to see a flower in its "final moments." Like the others that have posted I'd clone out the white spots (at least the one on the right), because with how dark the background is it's hard to tell they are reflections. For me the background is a little distracting too. I think it is just light enough, and not dark enough, that I found my self spending too much time trying to figure out what the flower was sitting on. I would probably lighten up the ground so it is immediately recognizable and you can focus back on the flower. Just my opinion, and I'm relatively new so take it for what it's worth. Nice shot though.

Yeah I agree with cloning out the white spots too. The simplicity and minimalism of this photo is amazing. Good job!
