Beautiful angle. They look like flames or perhaps candelabras. Hope you do well.

Wow. This is so weird in a beautiful kind of way. It is so unexpected... or perhaps a consumer's nightmare. Very well conceived and executed. The placement of the half-eaten egg (I guess I prefer to interpret it that way) is perfect.

Crane

Orange and black = beautiful combination. Very well thought of. The addition of the black crane at the back adds more interest and contrast. DOF is very nice. I just don't like the dead center placement of the orange crane but that is just me (a suggestion is to crop just to the left of the square ball and about an inch from the bottom). What I like most is the loving effort and details that you spent in this challenge. It shows beautifully in your photograph.

Good macro and DOF. Lighting is also good.

I don't mean to be rude, but I thought oranges are explicitly stated in the rules for this challenge as an exclusion. Having said that, the luminosity of the oranges is quite interesting. The triangular arrangement is very harmonious. The folds of the background add some visual interest. There are however, white specks near the edge on the left, although small, somehow, are distracting. Still, it's a good effort for the challenge.

Orange on black is definitely the way to go. Lots of elements here though, that the eye can't decide where to focus. I wonder if taking out the butterfly could simplify things.

Nice macro and good DOF. A little bit of noise though but that can be repaired in neatimage which you can download for free.

That's bloody orange, if I may say so, that some may see it as red.

It seems overexposed to me at the top. If that's what you wanted for effect, then congratulations, you succeeded.

Beautiful macro. The clarity of the pollen is remarkable ... I am afraid my allergies will flare up :-). A ten.
