It looks like you added a motion blur instead of a regular gaussian blur. The bases look like they are moving.

The picture is captured nicely. The lighting is superb. I don't usually spend time commenting on the frame but I must say this one is not good. The blurryness goofs up my eyes when I try to look at the edges. A frame should confine not punish. Sorry.

Funny. She looks so distressed. I like the limited pallette. It has a bit of a red tint to it but that doesn't matter that much. I like it.

Good job getting the focus in the center. The red leads my eye right to the spot.

Something I've thought of doing. Good attempt and you did get the dof technically correct. So you are on challenge. The tones and lighting are good also.
There are a couple of things I might suggest. The towel makes the image look too much like a hospital shot to me. I apologize if there is a reason for it to be there. Try dropping your head down, maybe over the edge of your bed, that way you could do the view straight down the center and get both breasts in the shot. The hand looks oversized. I don't have a suggestion for that other than maybe placing it on your stomach or having the whole hand oof. Great try. You get a 9 for courage.

I gave you a 5 because I like the idea of the photo. I usually vote down a lot when a picture has as much neat image applied to it as this one has. All of the texture and detail was erased and I feel that it is no longer a photograph.

Close-up Feather

This might have done nice in "pwl". I like the wild colors and the dof. There isn't enough information to know it's a feather, but it sure is a pretty abstract.

Lovely photograph. Moody and quiet. Nice job of focusing. I like it and will not lower your score for spelling your title wrong, after all, what are editors for anyway? It would be interesting to see what would happen if you increased the saturation a bit.

The Highland Cow (Scotland`s hardy breed)

So cute. I wish I could see her eyes better and her nose was cleaner, but I suppose she wouldn't let you get in close to groom her? Just seeing that partial eye on the left sorta spoils the picture. Worth trying to get some more pictures, though.

AIDS in AFRICA: Will A Cure Come In Time?

I'm almost done with all the pictures and I must say, this one is the most pro-looking one of the bunch. The light is a little off, but you gathered all your props nicely, they are in a pleasing arrangement within the frame and you have a title that supports the photo. Good job. Not a "wow" photo, but it is a "pro" one.
Edit: Now that I think of it, it would be a better fit with "Newsweek" or some magazine of that type. But you still keep your 10.
