I'll try not to be bitter that you did the same concept as me but amazingly better. And then I'll try not to be baffled that mine ended up finishing slightly ahead of yours! Ahhwell, I'm learning. For what it's worth, I gave it a 7.

If you're going to go for the TMI-cam macro, it should have a sharp focus *somewhere* in the frame.

It's pixelated. A bit higher quality JPG (maybe a smaller image in pixel width to make up for it) would have scored higher from me. Graet concept, probably great execution; bad post-processing.

Parallel Universe

Comment:
The saturation's been pumped so high, and the color balance tweaked so hard, that the image is nearly incoherent. Less pixelation and better definition/contrast on each individual flower would have gotten a much better vote from me.

Great macro.

Usually I find the 'crowd shots' people submit aren't very interesting, but yours stands out from the, you should forgive the expression, crowd. Good focus, good lighting, *and* there's actually some kind of composition/eye-pulling focus.

If this were less blurry, I could rate it much higher.

Did you paint the blue one? :-> That's a really neat image, great contrast, great sharpness, nice movement of the color from dark to sunny gold.

Primary Glass

Wow. Oh, wow. Luminous color, light that's almost painted on, crisp, clear, perfectly proportioned ... a ten. Definitely a ten, from me, anyhow. :-> Great shot, beautiful shot, and moreover it puts the challenge topic front and center in the starring role.

Yellow

Nice color, nice light, nice focus. I could have graded it a little higher if there were more contrast in it - when I sit back and squint slightly I see a morass of almost all exactly the same shade of yellow (which, while an accomplishment of sorts, doesn't add to the visual interest much). 7 ... but might have been 8 or 9.
