Good detail in the face and forelegs. Just the right amount on the edge of the petal. Love the red, though you might want to tone down the two bright spots in the upper right corner.

Eww, I'm not a bug person by any means, but this is a good, tight shot of the little critter. Good luck in the challenge.

Perhaps not what I would expect to see if I went to an exhibition of portraits! As far as the photo goes, the colour combination of red and green is good, and the diagonal nature of the composition works. The focus is slightly soft - a very slightly deeper depth of field might have helped. I find the black and red stripiness of the background slightly off-putting.
