This has an old-time feel to it. She looks a bit overwhelmed. :-) To get maximum consideration from voters, use the largest size available to you. In this case we were allowed 720 pixels on the long side. If you're not sure how to resize, there's a tutorial under "Learn", or ask in the forums and someone can help you.

Very nice color rendition - nice purples and the greens make an excellent contrast.

There's a tutorial (under "Learn") that will help you resize your picture so it's large enough to give viewers and voters a good look. If you don't use PhotoShop, ask in the forums and someone can help you resize with other software packages.

Great-Grandfather's Christening Gown

A lovely gown and what a wonderful tradition to carry on! With the pure black background it appears as though the baby is floating or standing - neither of which seem quite natural. Not sure how else to do this, though.

He looks either sad or bored, poor thing. If you could get closer, a closer shot would have more emphasis on the frog and less on the flower - based on your title I think that was your intent.

Multi-functional Water Tower/ Fire Station

Comment:
Kind of a plain shot. Maybe a bit more dramatic sky (if you get one) or a closer approach looking up the tower to get the lines of the sides?

Pollen Catcher

A bit grainy and sort of the wrong end for an interesting closeup of the bee.

Bride

Comment:
Just a little overdone for my taste, but I'll bet the bride and groom love it and they're the ones that count. I'd like to see it a bit more natural, as it looks like the both have wonderful expressions.

Nice timing! I like shots like this to look at the expressions of the crowd.

Colors are good, but this seems a little busy and subjectless to me - the eye needs a place to go.
