Moments Before Purple's Conception

Great idea! Would've liked to see a bit sharper focus as image appears a little blurry and soft.

Fly on Aeonium Petals

Looks like a full res crop. Image appears grainy and out of focus. A bit lacking in the post processing department. Would've cropped a tad off the bottom but not much. Feels like a rushed attempt or unfinished snapshot of a work in progress.

Very strong contrast and globe seems overexposed. Would've used the flash for this pic to help brighten up the figure while keeping a faster shutter to capture more detail in the ball.

The Purple Spirit!

Excellent DOF and contrast :) Interesting smirk on model's face. Would've softened the light just a bit as it appears harsh on her face and in the reflection of her eyes.

If selective desaturation was used, I would've desaturated the grass as well. Cropped a bit too tightly on the sides and top of bench appears slanted.

Image lacks overall sharpness. Seems hazy/washed out. A level adjustment would've helped with contrast.

Spinning On That Dizzy Edge

Nice vibrant colors. Transition between orange and blue seemed to have been manually blurred in post. Image appears oversharpened.

Whoops...

Nice composition. I'm wondering why the reflected light under the shadow of the paintcan is yellow while the highlights on the side are bluish in tone. I would've have desaturated those two elements I just mentioned as well as giving the background a pure white tone. Lighting appears warm. Excellent composition! It's just the lighting that bothers me.

Nice attempt. I like the red background but the purple bee and pollen doesn't go well with me. Excellent photo but I ask you, "would the colors be edited this way had it not been for the challenge?"

Purple Heart through Glass

Appears to be heavily photoshopped. I see little photographic integrity as this could be entirely produced from scratch using paintbrushes and filters.
