Part of me likes the over exposed bright section on the left but I think the majority doesn't. Great close up detail and texture.

Good luck

Hope you weren't standing on a very tall ladder shooting this ceiling fan. Details seem a little soft but could just be the light reflections. Good color.

Good luck

Hey look, a fly on a stick (sorry running joke with my wife). Good detail although he's a little dirty and appears to be collecting dust for a little while. I like the depth of field and sharp focus. Totally one color background helps give attention where it is due.

Good luck

Interesting. Focus seems soft on the barnicles but not the black shell, might need a slight adjustment there. Good depth of field otherwise.

Good luck

Ohhh how cute in a weird kind of way. I think your depth of field was just a little off, his nose is slightly blurry but mouth is sharp (and probably really is sharp too) You probably didn't have much time to compose the shot. A polarizer on that water would help its dullness some too.

Good luck

Good texture but wonder if it would be better if you were closer and cut off some of the flower...my first thought was move it to the lower left corner. Your colors (especially green) are dull also, see if a saturation or curves bump could help. This has potential just needs slight rework.

Good luck

Hummm, I'm guessing silver since there doesn't seem to be any overlap or gaps between the spots...probably way off though.

Good luck

Nice, I like the lighting on the back and shoulder. I would normally want this sort of image more to the left to give it room in the direction he is looking but with your use of lighting you pulled this off nicely.
Good luck

Nice boken effect on the background but I think there's a little too much background and draws your eyes away from the main subject that has lots of potential.

Good luck

Neat idea, good representation of smooth texture. Nice colors and framing of subject.

Good luck
