Good comp & nice saturation. The flower in the background is a little distracting.

7 - Nice shot. Criticism; would like to see the 'odd bee a little sharper, perhaps a different angle, not sure. Technically, while no 'expert', seems fairly spot on to me for the Challenge, but having said that, I would like to see this not so tightly cropped horizontally, not only to give it more 'depth', but so the flowers at the top were not 'cut'. Just noticed the soft effect on the flower directly under the 'bee' - very nice.

Nice DOF. I like the bee's placement - perfect for the rule of thirds. I think the colors are very nice too. It's interesting that the blur is to the right yet 2/3 of it is in focus. Nice.
