Tony,

What a great shot. I don't really think I am qualified to comment on your shots, but I will give you my thoughts for what they are worth.

Composition/use of frame space
Nice composition - good use of thirds. My eye wants to travel between the foreground flowers and the mountains in the distance - very appropriately. My only criticism is that I wish the pedals on the top and the bottom flowers were not cut off.

Creative use of Aperture/Shutter
DOF is great for this shot. The mountains are reasonably in focus; as are the close flowers.

Perspective / Creativity

I like the low shot perspective - it is a nice way to show the field of flowers without just being a mass of yellow.

Emotion
Forethought/Visualization
Post processing

I am not sure what it is, but I would like to see slightly more brilliance, or contrast of the yellow in the flowers. It might just be my monitor, but my initial reaction when I saw this was the flowers were more "muted" than I would like to see. Unfortunately I do not know what to do in PS to bring this out...

I hope my thoughts are helpful.

Again - what a great way to photograph this scene.
