Yet another flower. Centered composition detracts form an otherwise workmanlike image. Focus is good. DOF is good. Lighting is good.

Yet another bug, but a good one! Good image well focused and exposed. Nice reflections. Contract with black background is striking. I probably shouldn't be, but I'm bothered just a little because the light border line seems to go under the bug. And yet, just as I say I'm bothered, it does work pretty well. Never mind about the border comment.

Yet another bug. Still I like almost everything about this photo except the placement of th subject. SLIGHTLY greater DOF might have also helped. It's tough, because the buggars won't stand still. Good image with high degree of difficulty.

Good workman like photo but the subject isn't that interesting. Perhaps a different composition would raise the interest factor. Lighting seems a bit flat. Stronger shadows of the strings might have given the photo greater depth.

Yet another flower, but beautiful. Lovely composition, colors, DOF and focus.

The small size will damage the scores on this worthy image. The size is 180x266. Try for an image size where the shortest side is no smaller than 400 if your camera supports it.

Yet another bug ... but a good bugThe shallow DOF works wonderfully to creat a 3 dimensional feel to this. I like the subtle colors. Among the best I've seen.

Very nice abstract image. Love the colors and how they seem to shimmer. Focus is great!

I like the feel of the image. The colors are good. One of the best I've seen so far. The out of focus green blob in the upper right distracts my eye. After the challenge is over, I'd like to learn how you did it.

I hope she says yes...

Very tough subject to photograph. Focus is incredibly difficult. I don't get a sense of depth here, which would have improved this.
