very very nice. the noise level and texture of this shot gives it an almost painted feel; also the lighting is very pleasing. only criticism is that i kind of wished both eyes were equally sharp and detailed; but it's a minor quibble. i love the close crop, the feel of the picture, and the almost smiliness of the face. really cute too. 9.

Excellent stop motion. I like the simplicity and light. In this regard, I believe it is very close to a Zen-like composition. Can I ponder deep thoughts when I look at this? Possibly. Is this quiet and serene imagery? I guess so, since you have 'stopped' any imminent sound and there are no glaring colours or busy lines.

What I mean to say is, imo, for an image to be truly Zen, it would be a scene in which I was able to rest my mind 'visually'. To a certain degree, you have achieved this and that's as good as a 10 for me.

Love the dash of green on overall white background. The float and shadow add to drama. Hope this does well for you.8.

Wow that is a great freeze. This would do well in the stop motion challenge that you didn't know about until this was already entered!

Nice job with the focus and timing. I also like the spotlight emphasizing the marble. Only complaint is the oddly shaped lower light reflection in the marble, but that's kinda unavoidable.
