 Last minute entry. I'm expecting loads of oil in water shots from experience macro photographers, so not expecting a high score. It was fun playing around with the oil though. I cropped off quite a bir from the original to get a decent composition, which caused a major loss in quality. So I'm expecting to get nailed on that.

Nice idea, wish the fly was in focus though since it´s the first thing I look at in this picture.

This is a great capture, nice colors and lights, very good composition, but, just without this "fossil" ..
