The light on the horse is great, but the sky is kinda dishwater. Maybe you could try this as duotone or b/w? Then I wouldn't be expecting much from the sky.

Daring processing ;-) I like your idea. It's really close - I can't quite figure out which way I'd tweak it.

Nice, relaxing.... except that I am curious about the black smoke.

Very cool shot. Hmm, the limited range of tones makes it appear just slightly too harsh to my eyes. Like a photocopy. Might fool around with changing the white to another color? I love the reflection's design.

Really classic-looking photo. Might consider reducing the noise in the sky. Great catch of wave crash and seagull.

Yes, what mpeters said.. thanks for the bugshooting suggestions. I am relieved to learn that someone else is feeling around for focus with macros. I think my problem with understanding your title during the challenge was that I didn't realize where his eye was or what it looked like unscarred. I'll have to bone up on my dragonfly anatomy ;-) Congratulations on your high score - a super-big deal in a challenge of this size and competitiveness.
