The maximum size for a photograph is 640px on one side; your long side is 480px. If this shot were submitted at full accepted size, I probably would have seen the goose sooner, and it would be much easier to give a fair score. At this size, however, it is hard to really evaluate.

It's strange that the glasses are not magnifying the text; I would have expected that, but maybe they're just weak reading glasses. This is a unique take on the challenge, so a kudo for that.

I would never have known that a dragon fly had so much detail to photograph. The hot spot at the head, and a tighter crop than ideal will hurt the score a bit, but this is an amazing shot. 8

Critique club...
Challenge: This shot meets D&L by the title you have chosen, which is acceptable in a challenge such as this.
Composition: The flower helps you out by managing the rule of thirds for you, and the angle of the shot draws the eye all around the flower. I would agree that the crop may be a touch tight, but it works as is too.
Color/Lighting: The lighting here is near perfect - a tiny bit darker than perhaps ideal, but very well managed for the shot. That enhances the colors in the shot quite nicely.
Clarity: The important parts of the flower are in focus, with the stamin almost competing for the upper petals for the main attention. I like the DoF in this, as it emphacizes the depth of the flower.
Overall: A very well composed shot of what happens to be my favorite flower (it was in the corsages I bought for my prom dates back in High School). This also does very nicely as a macro shot.

Very nice macro shot, and I really like the title too.

The maximum size for a photo here is 640px on one side, and your long side is 410px. This looks like it might be a great shot, with perfect focus on the flower... but at 66% of the preferred size, it's really hard to see.

Good use of 'natural' framing for this shot. You captured an interesting tree, and made an interesting photo while doing it.

The maximum size for one side of your photo is 640px, and this is 375px on it's long side. Even the best shot becomes very difficult to see at this small of a size. Looking at this shot now, the branches on the guy's back are very indistinct.

This kind of reminds me of Edward Scissorhands. I think this needs a hair more light, just so the branches are a bit more emphacized.

Nice web shot... I hope you explained how you get them so well in here. A touch of color would be welcome, but this is very good as is too.
