Great idea for this challenge and technically well done, but not the most dramatic pose.

Interesting idea, but would work much better for me if I could really see her eyes.

Great capture, but the purple sky is distracting (do you know about the Convert To Profile command in Photoshop? If not, check out this tutorial)

Wish the cup had motion-blur, that would give a much more effective sense of imminent crash

Very well done, simple and bold. Would more saturation in her lips be even better?

I like the expression and face paint, but she really isn't very close to filling the frame. And speaking of, that frame's got to go...

That's one of the best flower macros I've seen for long time. Very sensual!

Lovely model, but you need to be far more subtle about skin smoothing. Especially at such close range, where you expect to always see a little skin texture, no matter how smooth the skin. You've got the right idea about not smoothing eyes, eyebrows and lips, but you're just using too much blur everywhere else. And that frame is just a distraction.

Great lighting and interesting subject, but not a good fit for this challenge
