The King

6 - Good effort. Criticism; not sure on the lighting, seems too much of a yellow or purple 'tinge' to this, can't discern which. Slightly different composition, perhaps (no idea how) trying to get those skeletal hands more prominent, may have made this better in my opinion.

5 - Like the potential. Criticism; assuming this is (or needed to be) a macro, the focus seems 'off'. Like the colors, but perhaps adding more space between the feature and the backbround, may have given a bit more 'depth' to this shot. Possibly even a slightly different angle/perspective too (more side on?, not sure), and a crop/nudge rotation up on the left - to level the base, may have made this better in my opinion.

Lucky Charms

6 - Good idea. Criticism; obviously your call on display choice of charms, and while I think the play on words idea is good, still, I would like to have been able to see more detail in your 'charms'. Whether you could do this in the set up you have (maybe with the spoon closer?) who knows. The color of the bowl etc, and the lighting, do not enhance the shot, nor the charms, in my opinion. Up to 6 from 5.

Standing Out in the Crowd

4 - Mainly for the potential. Colors are good and (from what I can discern) the focus & focal point is good too. Criticism; the size of this is the biggest negative. Needs to be 640 on either width or height, in this case width. I like the way you have set the middle unicorn facing up to the camera. A slightly different crop (carefully choosing what to 'cut out'), and the size, would have made this much better in my opinion.

What a lot of Pooh

Comment:
6 - Good. Criticism; seems a few distracting marks in/on the background and not sure on the color choice, whether it complements the color of the 'Poohs'. Perhaps if the focal point began a little more to the fore, or else a slightly tighter crop on the left, may have made this better in my opinion.

Wrong Challenge? - can't make any 'collections' connection here, fingers, tools?, sorry - 1. Ok 2, only because it is a good shot. But is a 'DMC' in my opinion.

5 - Mainly for your efforts and the potential. Criticism; the lighting really is the main thing. Possibly a sharper angle/perspective may have made this better in my opinion. It's a good idea, and while I am sure you had to have patience and couldn't 'experiment' too much, I just think there could have been some interesting 'potential' shots given your 'subjects'. Perhaps a more 'apt' base, or 'different'; grass, fur, not sure, just something 'different'.

5 - Like the concept and set up. Criticism; perhaps a sharper angle, trying to create a more dramatic effect may have made this better in my opinion. Perhaps also placing the bamboo further in the background, may have created a better 'depth' here too. edit:typo

2 - oops - wrong Challenge? I give you 2 because there is a 'collection of pipes'.

Stonescape

Comment:
5 - Nice colors. Criticism; slightly more 'fore focus' would have made this better in my opinion, and a little sharper on whatever you choose to be in focus too. Seems a blue light reflection on the green/khaki stone, but that may be in it so not sure. The frame is too thick and detracts from this, especially at this size, in my opinion. A different crop too, especially to incorporate or cut out that 'crystal'(?) on the right. edit:typo
