What is this

Nice colors and shapes. I think the out of focus leaves at the left tend to detract from the main subject.

Leafy sea dragons are amazing creatures. Great composition. I don't mind the tail being blurred, but the focus on the head and body is too soft; some sharpening would help. Although this is a great photo, it is a "still" life, not a "still life" (you're not the only one that misinterpreted the challenge like this).

Interesting shot but needs a little more focusing.

Possibly the most beautiful and bizarre animal in the world. Nice shot but a larger DOF would have helped as I would have personally preferred to see the whole animal in focus.
