I guess this is an American thing, we don't do this on this side of the pond.
Nice shot.

Brings back memories eh? I like this image, its simple and nice but it does feel a bit dry. There is some spark with the purple coloring and gold highlights but it still seems like something is missing. Perhaps if it was lying across a graduation invitation/announcement or something? Just a bit of something to add a little more dimension instead of the flat, boring white surface. The focus is good as well but I do wish the DOF was just a smidge greater so that section in the bottom left wasn't blurry - its drawing my eye and is a bit distracting. Nice take on the challenge though! I gave a 5

Nice DOF. Shadow in upper left corner distracts.

this is a very good photo of a glad.- hard to get them because of height but you did a nice composition. I like it a bit dark too. Most people want you to up the contrast, brightness, sat.---I'm a fan of not messing with it - sometimes! Not an expert, just my opinion

Great composition, but your colors could pop more. Green and yellow color saturation needed.

Sorry that you were a bit disappointed. I have found that what I find interesting is far from the majority. You had some nice color use in this one and your detail on the footprints is pretty good.

Photo needs more "snap"

I like the muted colours, although this is perhaps a little too soft for my tastes. Did it lose a little sharpness in downsizing?
