Dreamlike image, don´t care too much for the bottom part though, sort of looses texture a bit..

I love the title. The texture of the rocks under the fuzzy soft water is a nice contrast. Good use of light.

'7' - Nice shot. Criticism (with the caveat I know squat about long exposures); whilst I am a fan of this type of shot, I am wondering if perhaps there was a little too much exposure as there seems to be almost a 'slime' feel to this. I know you have worked your title into that feel, and while it does look in parts like 'melting', for me, especially without the title, it has a different 'feel'. The colors are nice, but I would like to see them even bolder (the green especially). Also, I favor that left hand side of the photograph and if that (dependent of course what is further left) were more in frame, it would make this a better photograph in my opinion, especially if you were able to capture more of the texture (and you already have) of the moss etc. That 'hanging' at the left rear and the seemingly 'still' water there looks intriguing.

Neat stuff. The circles on the wings look like half open eyes. I kinda like this crop over the one you submitted to the Macro challenge.

I really like these type of shots, love the silky texture to the water, but in this one I think the water is a bit too blurry Also there are a few hot spots.

Good clarity and colors on this shot. If you've got the time for post processing, you might see how it looks with the fence cloned out of the background. I really like the expression on the face of the zebra...nicely captured.
