Creative composition, technically well executed, I just don't have enough praise. This is definitely one of my picks to win! (10)

Delicate Matter (For Some Men): Equality

Comment:
Without the title, I would have never connected this shot with "delicate." This is a very busy composition - using depth of field would have helped the viewer isolate a focal point.

Returning for comment and bumping up. At first blush, this shot does not convey "delicate" as well as some of the others in the challenge. It is; however, technically competent with the exception of slightly skewed perspective (not all of the lines are straight). Overall, a visually interesting shot.

Touch Me Not!

This is not a super-attractive pose, although the model does appear to have a nice figure. Black bra + white shirt does not convey delicate. This shot is out of focus and the background is distracting. There is something in the lower left side of the frame that looks like it was not cropped out as you intended. Overall, the model is pretty but this shot looks more like a personal snapshot than an artistic interpretation of "delicate."

Very nice. Meets challenge well, excellent bokeh, colors on the focal point really pop. Overall, a great job.

Interesting take on the challenge. I'm not sure what the picture frame has to do with the pennies; I think going with a more simple composition would have gotten the point across more effectively. In addition, the white balance appears to be off. Where's the spilled water from the broken vase? It's obvious you tried here...good luck in the challenge.

I'm not sure I see delicate here, given the subject's age and clothing. NIce creativity with the double exposure; however with the muddy colors it might not communicate your vision as well as it could have. Overall, this particular shot lacks visual interest but is on the right track with creativity.

Good focus. The focal point (lichen, according to your title) does not take up enough room in the frame. Overall, a decent shot.

This is an excellent composition. The can on the furthest right doesn't seem to be tilted in the same direction as the others, but that is a teensy thing. Nice job.
