I love this picture, I've been looking at it for quite a while trying to identify what's refraining me from giving it a 10. I'm not an expert but I think that if it was cropped a little more at the left, making the picture bigger at the same time, it would have been better. Just my humble opinion, 8

Very mysterious tone. Makes me think of the phantom of the opera. Nice clear picture.

Killer backdrop for this shot. What was it? Hummingbirds are nothing short of amazing. Great stop action.

a tad more contrast would have made this pop a little more IMO - 8

Excellent sharpness and tonality; great composition, too. I really like this shot; its simplicity manages to be just perfect, not becoming simplistic.

Totally agree with SandyP. This does not deserve a 4.8! You got robbed. Nice work.

Mmmm, I miss those butterflies. Haven't seen them here in WA. I think they were a dimorphic species of swallowtail? Anyway, the blur, or NI, or whatever of the background does give a nice fantasy feel. Nice processing. I'm actually not quite sure what the big brown thing is. I thought a leaf, but I'm not sure. Gonna go with 6. Just a tad oversharp on the butterfly.
