Meets the challenge but I'm not a fishing guy so it lost my interest. Feels a bit oversharpened. Try sharpening the light channel in lab color mode. and then make sure to convert back to RGB.

Excellent composition - vivid colors - excellent use of DOF. This shot has the wow factor. Good luck to you - I hope it places well.

This is a very nice shot! I like the color in this photo. The lures are aranged as if someone was holding up a string of fish! The blurred boat in the background is pure genious. I can't say anything bad about this shot. Bumping up to 10!

Good job Joel, I like it. Taking it at sunset would definately added something. Maybe just a little less blur on the boat too. You rock though, good luck

very good use of 5 in a fairly creative way. I like the colors and depth a lot.

Nice use of depth of field. The background is awfully noisy however. A 6.

I like this a whole lot. The OOF in the background is handled perfectly. I wish the leftmost lure were being a bit more reflective, to anchor that edge of the composition.

Very good - I would have taken out the boat or getting it in sharp focus
