8 - Very nice. Difficult, but even more definition on the beetle and possibly all the anthers in focus (impossible perhaps) and the stigma, even if not in focus, just 'softer', may have made this even better, in my opinion. Nice composition.

The lighting on this photo is really good. I love the beetle on the bright colored flower it make it stand out.

Very nice flower macro. I think I like the beetle being there -- it adds a bit more "story" to the shot.

Great macro, very clear

My favorite Macro in the challenge. Great color, terrific light, and terrific use of controlled focus. One of my highest rated for the challenge.

Exceptional clarity. The stamens of the flower look like cobras protecting their kingdom.

Perfect bug and flower photo. Bang on focus, bright color, interest beyond the flower, did I mention wonderful color?
