Colorful and engaging, this is almost like a celebration of pi's birthday! I wish the whole thing were in focus, though. i like the detail of the paper: nice touch.

Very good picture. Great DOF and saturation. The white below is a bit intense, but I think works well with this.

Appears to have good DOF, but the light seems to wash out all detail on the Pi sign. Not sure if that is intentional to make it appear to glow or not. I like the way it blurs the farther up it goes. The frame is good in color, but I am not a fan of them. Not that I deduct for it.

Greatings from the CC!

First off I have to say that it's a good shot.

COLOR & FOCUS: Both the colors and focus are crisp. I'm glad shallow DOF wasn't used here as it would lose the nice fur texture. The choice of a colored bg brings the focus back to the lighters colors of the pic.

COMPOSITION: Hmmmm..... Macro or close up??? My attention is always brought back to the eye of the toy. So it seems more like a close up of an eye than a macro. If your intention was to do a macro of the face then I would suggest not cropping the nose and top of head to get the complete feel of the toy's expression. :-)

All in all a good photo for such a "cliché" subject. The WOW factor is what probably gave you the lower marks. I didn't vote in this challenge but I would've given you an above-average score of 6.

Keep up the great work! You take great shots!!

Flowers will always do well in color contests, be they fresh or dried. Your flower is also very good especially as it gives me the impression of crispness. I can almost feel the crisp dry petals. The DOF is shallow and effective, good job - 8.
