Nice colors. Not sure about the brush in the right foreground.

Burst of Flavor

That's enough to even make Grog hungry! I love the colors, and the visual depth to the image - a 3-D effect without glasses - the droplets really look like they're hanging in mid-air. 10

Run children! Beware of the exploding flower! Very nice concept - nicely done.

A Patch of Blue

Not buying it for the challenge - the blue is not intense enough, and blends with the rest of the shot rather than being an emphasis. However, this is an absolutely gorgeous photo. I especially like the big fir on the left 1/3 line as an anchor and balance to the mountain peak on the right 1/3. Wonderful motion patterns in the water, and great color on the bushes. Looks like the unspoiled wilderness, right down to no human tracks in the snow! 7

Roses are red

Looks more like a poppy to me. Interesting shot - I like how the color explodes outwards onto / over the white background. 8

Angel with colorful umbrella

Ah, selective desat! It does make the umbrella colors stand out. IMO, a plainer background would work better.

Very nice flower shot.

Nice sunset (sunrise?), but IMO the black poles & wires block & distract rather than add to. Interesting lines in the clouds, also - almost didn't notice them at all...

Creature from The Dark Lagoon... on a Leaf

Great shot. I like the DOF and good, sharp focus on its face. The orange definitely stands out from an otherwise mostly uniform tan/brown shot.

Hot Dog!

Interesting sculpture, but for this challenge, I'd tone the grass way down or lose it altogether - it competes with the dog for brightest color.
