Didn't make out the snow flakes at first, the title helped my slow mind out... Great idea, wish I had thought of it myself. Simple, yet beautiful shot!

Nice idea! like the "flare" lines from the shining balls. Maybe the crop could have covered the whole table, but that might take some "thunder" from the real subject? Nice

Looks like you put some texture on top of the image and it doesn't do it for me. Great timing, nice to see the flames coming out of the barrel. I would have done less "photo-shopping" on this one (given that the original was good enough, you can't really tell how the original quality of the shot is.

Great motion capture. Nice DOF and lighting, like the shadows from the wings. Good tight crop, I would have left a few pixels under the birds feet if possible. Nice job.

It looks way too fake, the black halo around the guy is distracting. Would like to see the original rules in place here.

Seems a bit out of focus (the front part of the flower).

Superb subject. Like the crop too, and good call on both b/w and the frame (I usually don't like the frames so thick but this is very tasteful). I give it a 8, but I would give it a 9 if there weren't a slight oversharpening evident on the foreground tree (you can see it on the lower right side of the tree, the white line). Great job!
