things i would do differently on this shot. 1. don't use a flash next time, flashed really kill the look of flowers by washing out the colors. 2. get rid of those paper clips. 4

Pincushion Flower (Scabeosa)

this is a really neat flower. very unique. there is one problem with this photo. everesposure. underexposing this photo might have helped you regain more sharpness that was lost when you took the photo. the photo composition is nice, the overexposure just seems to bleed all of the elements into indistinguishable parts to some extent. 6

Where the dressing?

there is no wow factor here for me. it looks like you just pointed your camera at a salad and snapped a shot. also it looks like you used a flash, which killed a lot of the sharpness you might have had. 3

nice wow factor on this one for me. you really got the focus just right. was there a reason that you cut off the rest of the pistols or stamens or whatever they are? colors are nice here, and the photo is pleasing to the eye. 6

i think this is one of the rare instances where i don't mind people pushing the limits of photoshop type programs. this photo has a nice smooth feel to it and the 3d effect you have created is nice as well. as a photo, as digital art, you did a good job i think, as a photo, i think you're really reaching. 5

i really like the depth of field in the photo and how the focus moves in and out of the flowers. 6

Zecondary Colorz

this is a photo that has a lot of potential, however it is technically flawed. i can't figure out what those streak lines are from, but they are quite distracting. the glare off of the goo is also distracting. the focus is off, maybe a depth of field issue. i also don't care for how the pattern is cut off in the bottom right corner of the photo. 3
