Even an abstract should be focused, however undefined the subject may be. IMHO that should be your target next challenge

Beautiful and elegant image. Did you try a vertical version with less negative space?

IMHO, although there is a reflection on the iris, it's so vague, that it looks more like a defect, than the theme of the image. The contrasted result of the color management makes for a photo that seems to be unfinished and raw, more than attractive or captivating.

Peek into my secret place

Beautiful image. Top 3 for me. In my personal opinion, I would have cropped a little higher the bottom to cover the edge of the wood planks in the water, giving out more space in the upper area, and showing more greenery. That would raise the angle of the point of view. It would have been very nice also if the face hanging from the bridge was more iluminated. This marvelous spot has a european feel; I wonder where this place is.

In my humble personal opinion, the focus for this image needed to be especially sharp. The light is too dull. It is nice to be honest and offer your true feelings, but instead of a very common family portrait, I would have prepared a scene of the family interacting with something else, surrounded by your geography (even the garden) and an appropriate light that would provide the warmth of the parents and the obvious beauty of the child.

Seattle is a picture perfect city from a distance by itself. What I like most about your angle choice is the inclusion of the mouintain in the far background.

This looks like a hiper-reality drawing. The needle looks unreal. The background looks like a perfectly even backdrop (blue screen) in a studio. The buildings are so perfect they look like an escenographic model, and the ilumination feels like a movie set. I would be pleased to see this stupendous image winning a ribbon. I love it.
