I really like the lighting and DOF. :) Not sure about the composition... my eyes don't want to stay on the mite in focus; they travel up the stem and land on the mites on the petals. Very nice otherwise.

I really love this photo. I wish it was a little more in focus, but the perspective is just so good. ..and I love these "in-your-face" close cropped photos. And I do notice there's a very crystal clear sharp teeny tiny lady bug too :) 8

Did you relly want to focus there? The subject and perspective is fine to me, but your focus point is very missy.

I like the clarity of this. The B/W works well too.

Sorry but IMHO you have the wrong part of the photo in focus, just having a small portion of the stem in focus isn´t working here for me at least. 4.

This looks so much like a magazine ad (which is good) except for the bottom right. So I would prefer a shirt that covered more. But - that doesn't really detract from my vote as I do think you have a very interesting perspective/angle. ... Oh. I see now how you might mean that the person listening to the song is "a 10" in which case the lower right makes perfect sense to include... It just does not come to my mind first that a person would be listening to a song about themselves. In any case, like I said, it does not detract from the vote.

A beautiful job. I really like how it fills the frame and has a soft texture/feel to it. 9
