How did I miss commenting on this brilliant macro? Gorgeous composition and color. Nice use of a "point" for focal point. :) Congrats on the top 10.

Hey! Congrats! Really liked this one. Sharpness where it ought to be, creamy tones where they belong... all in all a great shot.

This definitely works for me. Even though it's a busy shot, my eye still always comes back to the hook shape. Another great example of focal point (not voting yet, just looking right now.)

Beautiful image! I love the bright colors, and DoF. This needs to be printed large and hung on a wall. I hope you get a ribbon...10

I see a FP but it competes with the detail of the shiny blue detail. Good luck.

Great flow in the shape of this flower. Nice processing on this too. I may be wrong but I see some (strong blue) chromatic aberration in the upper left of the flower which might take away from the perfection of this picture. Still great. 8!

I love the abstraction of nature. The complimentary colors, combined with the undulating shapes is really spectacuar.
