It is a truly beautiful Cosmos you have pictured here. The petals are spotless, and the light is falling on them in such a lovely way. I like that a bud is included, and also how well the flower is standing out from the background.

The photo is sharp showing clear and well defined details both in the petals and the center of the flower, and the exposure is perfect.

I also like the tight framing and the placement of the flower a bit off to the right. A truly lovely and well taken photo with a very good DOF, and I wish you luck with the contest.
