Figured this one was yours. It got a high score from me. Particularly liked the transparent, translucent quality of the flower. This image is sorta of the skinny side - i think you cropped ;)

As you already know, this picture is perfect. If it doesn't get two hundred 10s I will be surprised. You have MASTERED the bug flower macro including the imprortance of choosing exactly the right flower and bug. Plus I like how you have trained the dragonfly to face forwards and spread his wings. 10
Great subject and composition. I just don't think it has much to do with the challenge (Country Life) as it could be set in a botanical garden in a city.
I'd love to see this picture blown up as this is a great shot of this subject.
Silky smooth photo and certainly gets an 8 from me but it`s not the sort of photo that says country life to me. I think more of farms, tractors and cows. Had this been an insect macro challenge you would have got a 10.
This picture is awesome for the colors alone. Does it say, "Country Life?" Not REALLY, but I won't take off for that. It's still a great shot. Good cropping. Border isn't necessary at all though. Borders should be used to enhance shots. This photo needs no enhancing. Great job.
WOW, that's a great macro. Super clear and the flower really gives us a sense of scale. Amazing. I'd like to find out what camera and lenses you used for this.
Composition: Nice aspect of the pic
Technical: Fanastic focus and DOF.
Meets challenge: A bit iffy I think..
Overall impression: Good, but it could be taken anywhere (..with flowers!)
It doesn't really match my expectation of country life but it's a lovely photo. The shallow DOF is great, focus is great, exposure is great, composition is good and border is fine. Well done!
Nicely done. I wish those two out of focus petals would go away, though. I love how the flower completely contrasts with the background in color and focus.
Beautiful picture, my only 10 this challenge. Great green, the overall saturation is spot-on. The composition is good, even the angle of the wings is perfect. Nice one! 10
