Hey there from the CC Club :)
I really like this macro .. although i do wish it was a little more in focus ... but maybe the soft focus was intentional. the composition is set very nicely .. not quite in the center and the colors are very soothing ... the DOF to the background is pretty good as well ... a little more may have brought the "puffball" out a little more .. but over all a very nice image :) - keep up the good work :)

Great study of a dandelion. One of the more artistic photos in this challenge. I love what you did to get that eerie green cast to the photo, and the slightly off-centre composition. the DOF is gorgeous. 10.

More focus needed. Too much green cast. This is a difficult shot due to the softness of the subject. The camera has a hard time adjusting and hence poor focus. I have tried this many times without great sucess.

I like what I see here! Of course I am a little biased as green is my favourite color, but this is still good. Clever idea and well done, it is a little noisy but I find it works in this image - 8.

I think this would have worked better if the grain could have been eliminated from the background. The light coming through the seed pod is very interesting.

The colors, contrasts and soft focus in the center work well here. Sharp focus on the outer lines is marvelous. Simply wonderful. my first 10!
