This image is amazing. It is also amazing the disparity between the avg. commenter's vote and the end result. I feel your score is highly underrated, and I wish more of the under 6 voters woould share what they liked or disliked abut the image.

The textures are fabulous. The lighting is perfect - very dark and emotive. The subject mater is powerful.

What a beautiful little kitten, Laurie. I like the way the warm background sort of contrasts with the cool color of his/her eyes.

This is a funny image. The lighting is nice. The humor is dead on. There is a little loss in the detail of the water towards the center of the frame over the shirt. I think a closer crop and a cleaner glob of water (rather than a spray) would lend more magic to the image. Well done!

You have produced a clean and very crisp image. The colors are fantastic, and the details are very clear. I think the image would have more imoact with a different crop - to show more of the contrails and leave more negative space in the frame. Just a thought. Well captured though, and beautifully presented.

I would have to agree on the cropping. You actually have a couple if really nice options. For the Stopped Motion III challenge, I think a crop to fill the frame with the flowe and the bee would have more impact. I do love the colors in the image, and the shallow DOF lends a nice Bokeh effect to your background.

I really like the soft blur of the bee's wings and the pick centers of the blossoms. It is what I find in small details like this that makes the image beautiful.

Your post processing technique is beautiful. I love the tall grass in the foreground. Image looks like an old fashioned daguerreotype.

It's tough to get the lighting right when taking pictures at this time of day. I do like the backlit leaves. I think the composition might flow better if there was onlt one tree centered or three trees. The tree to the left of the frame sort of throws the balance off in my opinion.

I think the shot is taken from an interesting perspective. The lighting (flash) is a little strong.
