The waterfall capture here is fantastic. The person adds scale, but on the other hand, somewhat detracts from the natural scenic beauty.

Very nice effect in the top 3/4 of this image; the overexposed and purplish ground detracts though.

Nice, but A bit too dark on both my monitors! Barely perceptible person.

Good texture; you might consider cropping the bottom 1/2 inch to eliminate the lower left area which seems a little yellow, as well as having a bit too much of a tunnel perspective.

Nice closeup, would have been a bit more interesting to see a directional light source on here.

I like this a lot, but wish the flower weren't so oversaturated.

Well composed and cropped, and meets the challenge well. I think a bit more DOF would have been good, if you could have captured all the red flowers in focus.

Good capture; I like the opposing diagonals here! The area of the branch in the foreground is a bit overwhelming. You might consider a crop on the left, perhaps making the picture square which might work nicely with the diagonals. Even if the bug ends up being centered, the diagonals will make it worth breaking the rule of thirds.
