When Harry Met Sally

Thank you to all for your votes, comments and questions. This was an interesting challenge in that many of the entries were just as much of a stretch as mine, but perhaps this entry was the farthest stretch of all. If you don't question or stretch boundaries, then you fail to learn. I expected this entry to either fail miserably, or rank high for it's humourous take. I learned that I was wrong, and it ended up scoring in the middle zone - 53rd of 81 entries. Cheers, Sandra.

I have seen this image before in the Fire III Challenge, and it is one of those captures that I wish I could master. Well done. Cheers, Sandra.

A unique entry. Not many have thought about entering an image of an insect into this challenge. As much as I see the eyes, my first focus was on the wings and the legs of the butterly. Some creative cropping might have changed my perspective on this. Regardless, overall this is an outstanding capture.

An outstanding persepctive. I don't care if this was intentional or by accident - this is superb. 9!

Superb macro shot, but not esthetically pleasing (to me). Excellent detail and crispness in this shot.

The Apple of Grandma's Eye

It wasn't until I saw this in a second glance that I realized the reflection in the eye. Because of the eyelashes covering the reflection, I am going to assume this is not altered. Therefore, I must say this is a superb capture and a very fittingly titled.

I don't know weather to like this or hate this - it is both odd and interesting at the same time. Cudos for capturing something something very unique and uncomparible in this challenge.
