Detail in blue

I thought this was a fake flower at first, It has quite a bit of sparkly in it.

overall, I find this image to fit the challenge, but not be terribly exciting. I've seen so many flower shots, that it's hard to look at them, even when everything is technically good.

there's a weird string like object in the top of the flower, was that part of the plant?

Bubble

Comment:
The only thing that I find strange or that I dislike about this, is the models hand position. I'm not sure if she's going to pop the bubble, or trying to get someones attention to the bubble, or ...

lighting is nice, i really like that background, and the textures there.

I like it, and have been wanting to explore an idea similar to this.

There seems to be something missing, I'm not sure if it's compositional or not. I think it's a combination of the angle the photo is taken, and the lack of a definitive focal point. I don't know where to look. maybe create paths that the eye can follow, and fill in the surrounding zones?

very nice. the black card works well for contrast.

only thing that irks me about this is the border, it seems so obtrusive into the image frame.

cute title.

only thing in this I would do differently* is cool down the background a bit, it has quite a bit or red/yellow adding some unnecessary warmth (*only for this challenge)

A Cool Life

well composed, I like the foreground, the children and the ships. the tree areas on the right side seem to be suffering a bit from either post processing, or maybe some lens problems.

The colors in this are nice, however it's hard to define which challenge it'd be more appropriate in. violet is a mix of both warm and cool colors, so it's kind of cheating. :D

On the formal side of this, it's not terribly interesting of a composition. I'm not sure which flower --if any-- is important, which when combined with the title makes this image easy to pass up.

Nice portrait. feels a bit strange in the cool colors challenge.

on the formal side, I'm not sure I like his expression, It's not quite a "I'm concentrating" look, and it's definitely not a "I'm loving what I'm doing look", but more of a "I can't look at the camera, they told me not to look at the camera/deer caught in headlights" kind of expression.

Although technically nice, I'm finding it difficult to pinpoint a point of interest in this. The models expression is somewhat blank, I don't really get the same 'fantasy' or 'dreamlike' emotion that the rest of the image is exhibiting. I think I would try shooting from a lower perspective to exploit that.

Snow Flower

I'm not sure what exactly is going on, but I like it (although not for this challenge)

Wish the plant had more cool tones, yellow and red both are warm, and with that as the focal point, it seems strange in relationship with the challenge. I wish also that the bottom right would have had the same cool texture as the rest of the image.
