7 - I love the composition, the bright colors, and even the little spider. I would just like to see sharper focus on the bee, especially around the head.

Lots of potential here. Good angle, nice colors. Definitely close up. I would wish for a tad more sharpness, especially in the eyes of the bee.

Good attempt, a little sharper would help, and I would have cropped out the spider in the lower left, its slightly distracting.

Oh wow! You did fantastic! I expect to see this one in the wnner's circle! In addition to the bee being so perfectly sharp and crisp, your background, and your colors are interesting and nothing short of awesome. I almost don't want to go to the next photo, but would rather just sit and look at this one for a while longer. I'd give this a 20 if there was such a thing. 10 (of course)
