I gave this a 6. I liked seeing the details on the rings. Very nice macro.

I did give this a 6 for the beautiful mix of pattern, light and shadow. I'm thinking that the reason why I did not give this a higher score was because of the color tone. Have you tried this in just pure black and white?

I thought this was very pretty and all the lines and patterns made this interesting to look at. I did give it a 6 but would have given it a higher score if the slight blur was not there. With all these beautiful lines, I am expecting something crisp and sharp so that I can enjoy all the specific details in the architecture.

Well I gave it a 6 because i saw the patterns and it was something that made you stop and look for a minute. For my personal taste, there's nothing there to hold my interest past that moment of observation and that's why I think I did not give it a higher score.

I did like seeing this during the challenge. So soft and pretty - natural patterns at it's best. I love how the soft light is shining on it and makes it stand out from the background.

I can't add any more to what others have said. I liked seeing this during the challenge. I thought the yellow background was a good choice to help make the wheel just pop out of the picture. Something fun to try here tho would be to do a border like BHuseman did with this photo . I think it would be fun to see the wheel just kind of 3-D pop out of the background. And if you do this, and figure out how to do it, let me know lol.

Very interesting - I would not have guessed this was a pine tree. Well I gave it a 6. I thought it was pretty, and I liked the balance between blur and sharpness. I also thought the line of shadow was pretty cool. I think I did not give it a higher score because I wanted something else to reach out and grab me - like I was looking for a focal point.

I liked seeing it during the challenge and I thought it was a great title as this does convey quite a spiritual tone. The flying squirrels are very pretty :)
