I really like the colors. The background compliments the grasshopper beautifully. Very, very nice.

This is a beautiful picture. I love the focus and depth of field. The subtle variations in color in the background are lovely. For the Bokeh challenge, I think a shinier background would have helped the score.

This is a captivating image, and quite unusual for bokeh. I like the effect.

This is marvelous. Definitely one for the Art League submission. Congratulations on the great score and placement.

Beautiful. The B&W is really nice. I don't understand all those low votes -- one or two are sort of normal, but this is ridiculous.

Such a good poster. Fortunately the issues the voters had with it are easy to fix before you put it up for sale. I love the composition, the colors and the message.

I absolutely love the poem!!!! It was very hard to read in this small format (at least on my monitor). I see the dog is searching in a garden, but the image is not motivational to me. I think the poem deserves better.

I like this image a lot, and the message is good. The graphics are rather uninspiring, and I think that is what hurt your score.

P.S. I really like the way the stones, radiate from the top of the door. You might have been able to accentuate that effect in PP to make the open door really radiant.

I rated most of this challenge between 4 and 7 because either the graphics were uninspiring, or the photo didn't fit or wasn't of high quality. However this is one of the few that I thought met the challenge perfectly. I love the color, the simplicity, the composition. The image is excellent and the graphics complement it very well. I gave it a 9. Congratulations on your good work and your top ten placement.

She is beautiful, and so is this shot. I love the lighting and the focus. The new lens is working well for you.
