You caught the wings in a great position and controlled the depth of field very well.

You did a great job of bringing out the texture of this snail.

This image doesn't have a center of interest. I assume from the title and the rules of the challenge that you wanted the snail to have the attention, but the flower stem leads the eye to the flower which, although unfocused, has the only bright colors. The photo would have been more effective if you had moved the large flower out of the way and cropped more closely on the snail, perhaps including the small flower if its colors didn't distract from the subject (the snal) too much.

I think more subdued lighting would be helpful here. The snail is a nice touch.

Beautiful fruits nicely arranged. The colors are great. But attention is needed to the background and lighting to make the photo more effective.

I like the color of this dragonfly. I wish the wings were in focus.

This could use a bit more depth of field, but you captured the fuzzy texture of the butterfly very well.

It's rare to capture depth in a silhouette, but you've done it here quite well.

Stained Glass

Apt title; the lighting does make the wings looked like stained glass. Great capture.

Nice job of portraying the fragrance of a garden. The hairs in front of her face make the photo seem more spontaneous.
