I don't know how much these are flora. Close enough for me though in terms of meeting the challenge. DOF could've been a little greater. Overall not a bad shot.

There's too much noise in this photo around the top right of the frame. The border is good. The colors need just a little more punch. This photo for some reason just doesn't look that smooth. Very cool flowers too.

The sunglasses really don't do it for me here. I think the theme of the picture is very cute generally and the macro on the flower is very good indeed. In general a good shot. The sunglasses just bug me.

Excellent color scheme and DOF. The one in front is sharp as can be. This is a really nice pic. Very well done - 10

I like the contrasting colors. I think this would've been a more effective pic if the DOF was a little greater.

A little to head on and center for my tastes. Other than that it looks pretty good.

Don't take this the wrong way, but the way the colors of this photo are and the way its almost sharp makes me think that the marlboro man from the '70s is firing up a red sitting by the campfire 10 feet away from this exact cactus. Good texture on the thorns and I like the DOF. It really reminds me of that 70's look of color photography though.

The glare kinda ruins it for me. Its not that it isn't natural or anything, but it sure makes it seem a lot less natural with that. Aside from that its a very nice shot.

This is pretty good. It could've used one more "sharpen" to make it even better. Good portrayal of texture and I really like the DOF.

Swirling Green

This looks a lot like a painting with the sort of swirly brush stroke appearance of the leaves. The lighting is just a bit flat and I think you should've adjusted the framing slightly so that the swirly thing was at one of the thirds as opposed to dead center
