Amazing macro and my personal choice for the blue ribbon. The soft focus and DOF are just outstanding.

Decent color, composition, lighting, balance and close to the ever popular upper right rule of thirds intersection point. This looks about as exotic as where I was really at but, of course, I'm MUCH better looking. LOL! - Steve

Interesting shapes, but I get only a weak sense of mystery here. I do like how they make a diagonal line across the photo, and the cloudy sky adds drama. In fact, it's an interesting image outside of this challenge.

Giving you the benefit of the doubt, I'll assume you saw this and thought "warlock" or "magic," but to me, they're just dramatic, interesting shapes. Be careful what you assume will resonate with others. Of course, having said that, you'll probably get a high 6 or 7. :)

But from me, 5.
