Diagonal composition feels forced; maybe a perspective from a corner looking up onto the board? Lighting is a bit harsh, background not adding to the image.

Might be worth bumping up the contrast a little to bring out the shadows/highlights even more.

Hope you kept the bee for next week's challenge ;-) Good detail; almost looks like the bee is disintegrating before my eyes. A few extra spots on the background near the flower are distracting.

If I had entered this one I might well have done a rabbit, too :-) Those ears are perfect for a diagonal image and the mixed-up ear look is precious. Good detail, clean pic, like the crop and/or rotation to get the ear and head on a perfect diagonal in the frame. The shadow is a bit harsh and the background lighting doesn't follow the diagonal.

Yes, it was very sad. Brings back memories even though I was just a kid then.

Cute kids and interesting subject; might've cropped it a bit tighter to get rid of the red stop sign and its reflection.
