Such an effective portrait. He has a slightly sinister look in his eyes, which is amplified by the guns around him. I dont know why, but I really like the "15" on his cheek as well. Great shot.

Took me a little while to realize this was in a helmet. I think this could be improved by zooming out a bit, and including more the helmet. Great lighting in the bottle.

Very nice take on the bug macro. The partially desaturated, high key processing in this shot separate this one from other bug macros. I think the score doesnt do this photo justice.

I'm very picky about selective desaturation images. They can work really well, but it is a technique that I find overused as well (I have overused it many times myself). In this image though, I find it particularly effective, as it draws attention to the leaves nicely. The strong lines of the bench/deck give the shot a nice geometric feel as well. Great photo.

I think this is an outstanding shot, and definitely in your comfort zone. You are simply a master at taking macro photos of insects. The strengths in this shot are the vibrate colors, and the shallow DOF which really focuses the attention on the hungry bee.

My clear favourite in this challenge. I like how this wasnt just a random assortment of stuff, but rather an indirect way of looking at the psyche of the person.
