The birds don't look real. I am rating this as if they are however. Nice scene.

Roz, I'm keen to learn to take semi decent macros, and I clearly need to learn to use a flash! This was up in my favourites of the challenge.

Another of your amazing insect captures. The vibrant colors and camouflage of the spider is fantastic. I thought this would ribbon for sure.

The classic pose, but you have done it very well. The real connection between father and newborn is totally apparent, along with tenderness, but also something else - I can’t quite place it, pain, fear, apprehension, maybe - in any event, a degree of intimacy and intensity that is missed from many other photos of this ilk.

Many of the entries are simply snapshots or pictures of artwork. You have taken it a step farther by using your creativity to enhance the entire scene to another level with the textures and processing. It makes it different.
