Stunning. Love the single leaf with the dark background. Lovely with the water droplets.

A Symbol of Love

Very pretty. Love the detail of the rose. The background variation is a tad distracting, with all of the layers of the petals already having a busy sense to them. Maybe zoom in further and just have a hint of the background, in order to meet the challenge. OR put the rose way off center, with lots of negative space to one side. I'd actually love to see it cropped, with no background at all, but that's another challenge altogether. LOL

OH COOL!!!! This would be a great advertisement billboard . VERY NICELY DONE!!! So artful.

On second review, I'm still an ultra fan of this. It's so out of the box and I love the abstract sense it it. 9 for sure without hesitation!!!

I like this very much without the eye booger. Maybe a tad too "uncontrasted," but the idea is nicely executed.

This has no visual interest, it's blurred and it isn't artful in the least. The focus needs to be tack sharp and the execution needs to show the viewer that you spent some time making the shot an interesting piece of eye candy.

I love the DOF. BUt I think the deep red is kind of "off" for this challenge. Otherwise, I'd give it a super high score. The focus on the hands and flowers is perfect.

This is excellent. The first 10 I've seen in the challenge. I really love it. The detail and lighting is really good. Nicely done!!!!

I love this idea.. Actually thought of doing it myself. I wish it didn't have such a blown out sense below. Maybe have the squash/pumpkin way to one side or up in one corner with lots of negative space, instead of dead centered.

THis is simple and suits the challenge perfectly. One of the few that truly does. Not overly interesting, but quite artful and different.
