Ahhhh...an Arial Portrait! Interesting but, not sure that I'd really call this a portrait in the truest sense of the term. Great job though. Fun! :)

Very bold and dynamic a shot with the colours and hard focus :)

I dunno...but, I think some people just love to find the flaws in shots rather than the good and actually go looking for them to point out LOL.

I actually think that this is a great shot, not posed for but, the kids noticed the camera, aimed at them and looked.

Beautiful shot and certainly not "over processed" in my point of view. There are PLENTY of overprocessed shots in DPC that do well so, why they may pick on this one is beyond me. I do think it should have scored way higher than it did. Perhaps, it's because voters here in DPC prefer a LOT of contrast???? Not sure why but, I think the score should have been a lot higher than it was. Still, your work is doing well for someone who has just jumped into the swamp of critical viewers LOL! ;)

ROFL....MOST things in here have been "beaten to death"! How many liquid drips, bees, smoke patterns, broken lightbulbs, fireworks, birds, flowers, zoo shots and too many other things to list have we all seen over and over again?! LOL

This is a beautiful shot that is very different than the standard "flower shots"...especially, with bees on them (LOL).

Frankly, I think that the out of focus petal, across the bottom front welcomes the viewer's eye to the central focus of the shot....the beautiful, glowing interior of the flower! :)

And, sorry, but the comment about "jagged edges detracting from the picture???? What jaggedness and what would it "detract" from????? (wish there was a puzzled face symbol LOL)

Lovely, work! I like it! Thumbs up from me! :) Wish I had have voted in this challenge but, alas, I wasn't in here during this challenge due to being busy with work.

Not exactly what I'd consider a "portrait" but, great shot! :)
