This makes me think of a certain painter's style, but I can't quite seem to place it....

Very interesting effect. 8

I like this shot alot, but I feel like a square crop of just the top flower (framed the exact same way) would have been much stronger. 9

The deadspace on the right side of the frame and tilted angle really take away from this shot.

Halo around the top of the rock takes away from this shot.

I'm Living in Sunshine

Nice concept and idea, however the flash coming from a different direction than the sun (in the arch and the side of the column) is very distracting to me. I do like that the subject is lit so as to not be silhouetted by the sunlight, but a more subtle touch of flash would've brought this shot to the next level.

Oh What a Wicked Web We Weave!

The white object in the bottom right of the background is very distracting.

I am SO happy to see this ribbon! Stunning subject, perfect processing, the work of a pro!

Beni, you're way off base here. The level of editing for a given challenge is merely the amount of processing that a photographer MAY use. Note in the rules of each challenge it says "May" or "May not," not Must or Must not. Deducting points (or not giving points...semantics) because someone was able to do more with less is rather trite.

I feel like the cow should be facing the other way...

I love the texture of this. I can't wait to hear how you did it or see a sketch of the setup. 10!
