Flimmer in style

Great shot. I really like how she appears to be coming out from the shadows. From the catchlights in the eyes it seems like you used a ring light, that along with the make-up above her eyes gives her a very intense gaze. The only thing that I would change is to clone out the small freckle above her mouth, it throws off the symmetry you have going from her eyes down. I would also consider maybe brightening the catchlight in her left eye, it seems a little dim compared to the right.

Excellent underwater image. I really like the pattern of the light on the dolphins and the surface of the water.

I like the shape of the drip. The hotspots are a little distracting though.

If you are not balancing flash with ambient then the shutter speed of the camera is not relevant. Even though your shutter speed is only 1/200, the flash duration will be less. As an example, this was a long exposure (a few seconds) in a dark room with the flash stopping the motion.

Nice macro. The distance between the spider and the reflection makes it look like it's floating.

I like this one much more than the first one. Same great golden light but I prefer this one's composition more. The tilted horizon works for me, it's at enough of an angle to seem deliberate.

The light is very nice, especially the glow around her hair. The straw (?) in the foreground is a little distracting in my opinion.

Excellent start to the challenge. I like the contrast between the motion and the stationary person at the end of the tunnel.

Shadows on a Huntingdon Bridge

I like the shapes and the shadows they cast. The colour however is not working for me. I would convert it to black and white, maybe even kick up the contrast a little.

Reflection

Great shot. Nice lighting, and the reflection just completes the image. The model's red hair and blue jeans really make her stand out well against the monochrome background. Too bad the image is too small to see her eyes properly.
