8 - Very good. A little dark overall for me.

4 - Seems either a soft focus or slight blur, which I don't find enhances the image, that coupled with the background color and the unnaturally draped fabric. The lighting is quite nice but not strong in the right places, in my opinion. Centered isn't really working (again, my opinion) and I'd like to (again) see it either sharper, or with a true soft feel/focus.

6 - Nice composition and elements, wish he 'popped' a little more - not sure on the grain, but could be intentional.... just noticed the oof branches with snow back right... they look good.

6 - Like this, just wish more refined crop at the bottom and maybe a straighten. At first thought I'd like to see stronger dof, but the fading works - the blue in the sky is barely discernible, so maybe bringing that in more, but again minor.

7 - Nice image. The softness works well. Like the way his eye matches his shirt. Find the mouth open a fraction too much but coul be the angle, but fairly minor. Like your crop.

5 - Nice exposure (don't mind the sky), but I wish to see the steeple straight, so the tilt is distracting - it does kind of work like this, and may well be intentional, but perhaps a stronger image with it 'straight'.

6 - Like this. You're brave to remove the beautiful colors that these flowers usually display. The tones work well. I find the top oof leaf a little distracting and compositionally seems like it is slightly off balance, perhaps a variation in framing, not sure.

6 for Sam. Just a little dark for me, but could be intentional. Like the textures.

7 - Nice action shot. Good composition. Like to see it 'pop' a little more, somehow.

7 - Nice capture - difficult one to get. Framing works well (although wonder about a variation in color to enhance the bird). Nice image.
