Another of two great macros in this challenge you no doubt know which is the other! This works so very well in terms of DOF I love the sharp focus on the eyes and the receding soft focus curve of the leaf and also the reflections in that water drop below. It is one of my highest scorers and will undoubtedly do well, good luck

What a great macro with all those very vivid colours and your DOF works extremely well. If I had one minor criticism is that it is a little central, I think it would lend itself to placement slightly to the right? Anyway, it is still one of my highest scorers, I wish you well with it.

A great image, you can feel the wind's fury in the rolling wave. I like the mono presentation and the highlights on the water, the only thing I'm a little disappointed by are the halos around the sharper elements. Good luck

You woz robbed! Its a shame, I often wonder at some of the scoring anomalies here but I suppose that's also what makes it such a fascinating place!

I ove the panning and motion blur and the sheer enjoyment she is having, a great shot well captured, good luck

Deer

This is a lovely shot which could have been even better with a crop of the deer at the right and a little more room at the top and left at the moment he is a little too central. Good luck

Grisly subject matter but the natural world captured in all its gory detail. I can see you wanted to emphasise the main elements but it feels as though your post processing is just a bit too heavy handed for my liking but thats just my opinion, anyway good luck

This is a very appealing shot that I'm not 100% certain why it works so well but it does, i reckon its probably the lighting and the gentle breeze suggested by the curtain, anyway it deserves to do well, good luck
