I think you lost points for the composition with the pot very central Kate, the pot in the background is also competing for attention, a few paces to the right would have made a difference. There are some great shadow details and textures there, but the step also needs some burning applied to tone it down.

Hi Kate, Tevbis partly correct in that the pot is central, but the plant is weighted to the left so it balances in my humble opinion. The contrast in light and dark, between textures and colours is great, and I like the shadows, so all in all a good image.
You have a combination of great textures here Kate.
I too have read Trev's analysis which is good to take tips from.
I find the sun's refection can knock you off balance too into getting
the true picture on things.
I like the subject central but to those in the know this is not on.
However, great shot…….

the old welsh wizzard seem to have summed it up well Kate none the less a pleasing image

I'm loving the lighting captured here. Some camera club judges have a thing about flowers not being in prime condition and the only reason I can see for you missing out on marks for this shot.
Enjoyed my time viewing here, smashing.

I like the light and array of colours in this pleasing image, the textures and details are mighty fine too. I think the epzers' are a more discerning bunch than those camera club judges!![]()
a Mediterranean classic, the handpainted pot, the textures and the intense bright colours. Would have liked to see more of the grotty door.
Lovely balanced image, Kate. Well captured and well presented. Elaine
