Absolutely beautiful image. It has a depth to it which gives it a 3d quality. The contrast and clarity is perfect... can't fault this image at all... my favourite of the challenge. 10!

Not a bad photo... a little bit of noise, and the colours are tad flat.

I like this... not sure why though... it's an ear. Think it's because it's such a simple photo, and it's done so well. Having it orientated as it is makes you stop to have a longer look at it... it's not the usual way of seeing an ear.

The details are good, as is the lighting... the hair is a bit distracting, though, that said, I think it wouldn't be as good if the hair was tucked behind the ear. The bottom left of the image is an issue, as it tends to unbalance the image.

Well done.

Nice details and use of DOF. Colour is a little flat though. With the shallow DOF, some tweaking of the red could have given this image some pop... a 3 dimensional quality.

Centered Sunshine

A very nice image... but I don't feel that this is a centred composition... the main flower/subject isn't centred vertically nor horizontally... and as far as the overall image goes, the other flowers don't offset the main flower enough to bring the composition back to the centre of the frame. Colour is brilliant and you've used the DOF well... just that balance issue which hurts this for this challenge.

Nice. I like the colours and the composition. There's a variety in the image thanks to the arrangement of flowers without compromising the theme... clever. Contrast is great, as is the focus... my only issue with this is the petals at the bottom sticking up and out of the field of focus. Other than that, love this photo. Well done.

Stigma of Amarillis
by kiskat

Comment:
While the stigma is centred and in focus, there's not enough there to keep the interest long. The colour is nice and the focus is clear, however I think the image suffers b/c of the shallow DOF and a lack of balance (due to the bottom right section being in focus and best light.

This is a very warm photo... think you might have entered the wrong challenge. That aside, the focus is a little off and there's too much to look at and no obvious path for the viewers focus to follow.
