Seconded. I voted yours a point higher.

92nd? You were robbed. This was one of only three 9's I gave out and was my pick for a ribbon for sure. Completely captivating.

I gave this a 1. Only because I am unable to give it a zero.

"For the purpose of this challenge, "wildlife" should be considered non-domesticated mammals, birds, reptiles and amphibians living in a natural environment."

Nice bug shot, but as per the above it doesn't include insects. Therefore I'm saying this does not meet the challenge. Sorry.

A little catchlight in the eye would help lift this image. There appears to be a faint one there, so I would look to boost/brighten that in post processing. Especially in advanced editing. I'd probably also heal out the couple of distracting drips under the neck.

I really like the idea and what you have tried, I just feel that the point of best focus is off a bit - although I can't really say where I would have preferred it. 6

Summer Breeze

Not getting any sense of sound from this image, as nice as it is. Can't say I've ever heard a summer breeze, maybe my ears don't work too good. Without the title, I'd see no link to the challenge. Pretty model, nice dress, nice location, but still, my perception is that this does not meet the challenge. Therefore I will be knocking a couple of points off.

Not really getting any sense of sound from this, sorry. Obviously the title alludes to the islands in Greek Mythology from which Siren's lured sailors to their deaths, but without the title, I don't get any sense of sound. I quite like the image as an abstract, but the link to the challenge is too tenuous for me to perceive. Therefore I will be knocking a couple of points of for my perception that this DNMC.
