Unfortunately the image is showing up way too small on my monitor for me to see any detail. I think you have a marvelous burst of color. It looks like a pleasing abstract. The challenge details said: "Use a colorful impact to offset your subject from the rest of the photograph." In my opinion, this does not meet the challenge, because the color is the entire subject of the photo.

I like your processing on this. You turned an otherwise average snapshot into a nostalgic illustration. Nice colors. I like the way the color of the door is repeated in the underside of the boardwalk. 8

Focus is too soft on the bee for this to have much impact. It is a nice color burst though.

Great capture. This really is a "burst of color". Too bad there is so much red and blue in the image. It took me a moment to find the color subject.

Lovely. The brilliant blue really does help to offset the beautiful orange lily. Nice focus and DOF.

Now there's a collection to make the Ribbon Hogs (DPL team) shutter. Nice capture.

I think the focus has to be tack sharp for an image like this to work. Nice composition though.

Beautiful composition. I'm just a little distracted by the halo along the top of the silhouette, but other than that I think it is top quality. 8
