I didn't vote this challenge but I would have given your crop outtake a higher score than your posted image, I like the natural skin tones better then the blue skin of the submitted image.

too much noise reduction and a sharpening halo around the balloon. Perhaps a lighter touch would be better.

Very cool Jason. Hard to tell from this angle I think this spider is commonly called a crab spider? I frequently find them hiding on my sunflowers.
