Very well thought out image. If I had to criticize, it could have been even more interesting if she were struggling with the ties as opposed to looking hopeless.

That is such a gross creature - I may not sleep well tonight. Regardless of my bug fobia, this has very nice detail.

Clean, simple & raw are words that come to mind. I haven't decided if I like it or not. It seems to be missing something (for me).

I would have preferred to see a facial expression - one typical of a ref making a call. Or even if he were blowing his whistle, then photographing the back side of the ref would be acceptable. For me this is simply a stripped shirt in front of a blurred background.

Excellent capture. If this were my photograph I might have called it the bee's sneeze because he has it all over himself. My only observation is I would have preferred to see the bee lighter coloured. I like this capture a lot.

a colorful death.

I like the title a lot and the fact that somebody was willing to attempt to make a spent blossom look beautiful is refreshing. I think you have succeeded here as the colours are very complimentary, true and in a rich tone echoing the depth of colour in the spent blossom. I also like that it is off centre. Well done.

I really prefer not to be negative, but I did feel complelled to analyze this image. I like that there are three layers here because without those levels of interest the image holds little other value to me. The quality here is in the execution of the bokeh challenge as opposed to artistic merit, however that being said, the later comment of course is subjective.
