		| | Decent color, detail and image quality. Composition is OK. Good subject for the challenge. 
 On the technical side the contrast is just a little weak and a simple autocontrast will add pop to the image. You might consider a color adjustment to add about 10-15% saturation to yellow, red and light blue for added viewer interest. A small amount of dodge and burn would give the image more texture.

		| | It's an interesting photo, I'll give you that, but I have a personal dislike for "generic" Photoshop filters, and I've only found 1 or 2 uses for this particular one. The more I look, the more I'm able to look past the filter, but overall I find it a distraction. |

		| | Photo has too much going on, no real central focus to make the score jump.  If the background had been faded out, not so bright would improve the picture |

		| | I know this filter!  Plastic wrap! 
 Very strange effect but I like it just for it's audacious weirdness.  I'm not a fan of overphotoshopping though so I've docked a coupla points for that.  Lovely colours, though and you've done well to retain an obvious subject in a busy image.
 
 Good luck with the challenge

		| | Mondo Bizarro. Reminds me of what our images looked like whenw e physically manipulated Sx-70 polaroid images as they were developing, pushing the soft emulsion around. Really sweet. |

		| | Creative effort. Major points for attempting it. It is, however, a little cluttered and busy for me. Not sure I can make it all out. Do like the effects you achieved on the fish and the seaweed. Fun photo. |
