Chilling! Great contrasts. This takes my vote for the best here so far.

This is a powerful piece of art. This is one of only two 10’s from me in this challenge. The detail, the focus, contrast all are superb. Brilliant masking of the man’s head to match the skull. This is impressive.

This is a beautiful Christmas cactus, with or without the water. To me if you are going to put water on any of it you should have put it on all of it, including the fully bloomed flower. Personally I don't feel the water really adds anything to a photo. The focus on this is fantastic. Nice choice of blooms, not too many but just enough, especially one open and one closed. Great choice. Could be a wonderful piece of art - decide about the water. Course this is just my opinion.

beatuful colours. I like the added touch of the water drops. Good choice of a black background ... it makes the colours stand out. Goo job. Jacko.

Composition and lighting are both very nice. I bet this will score high....it is with me! :-)

The focus seems a little soft on the top flower. Really good colours.
