Meandering

Beautifully presented, my only issue is the strong diagonal division of the frame, with nothing but water to keep the eye from wandering off the frame in the lower left. Top 3.

very nice composition, well framed and well found. Ought to ribbon, I do wish there was a true black in the frame to give it a bit more pop.

Clever idea, well executed, my pick for blue. I do wish you had flashed the bike somewhere along the way to clear up the mystery of what was causing the trail.

Red lines on Tower Bridge by night

I have seen similar images on line with the arch completed, and a bit more of the first tower in the image. I'm not sure if I'm missing that part of the image because it is inherently better image, or because I expected it to be there. Otherwise it is a strong image.

A bit more time and hence blur would have helped isolate the moving versus the static components, and made both a stronger image and a better entry for the challenge.

Childhood Lost

Ought to ribbon, nice color tie in with the tie in the photograph, the baubles on the pony tail and the peaches. The blue of the bowl sets that triumvirate off well. My only issue is with the reliance on photographs to make the allegory obvious, since an image is not a symbol but a representation. The shorn pigtail, and the peaches are a lovely evocation of fleeting youth, but the images are the easy path to clear communication, skipping subtle symbols, and something of a cheat.

The symbolism is rather opaque, but intriguing. The colors are lovely and well balanced and the items displayed seem layered with hidden meaning. On the whole it reminds me of a Cornell box; which I love.

The leaves are a bit blown, but the composition has an elegance and the symbolism is quite simple and lovely.

Gift of the bees

Nice lighting and background to show off the color of honey, and the pile of honey on the spoon has nice drama, but that drama is so little of the shot and so much is black or spoon that I think a tighter crop would have helped.

Golden Drip

You did a nice job capturing the glossy reflection of honey. I do wish you had gotten a bit more yellow in the light, because the well lit brown background carries the color of the drip into the dark a bit much, had it glowed a rich honey gold color it would have brought the shot to the next level. As it is it is my pick for red.
