This is a great use of DOF ... Looks like the bug's red was painted on though.

To me - this one is the winner. Very minimalistic. I love the composition. Nice surprise effect, when you watch it on a smaller screen and have to scroll (like me).

Is that a real lady bug? Anyway I do like this photo. The red and green are great! Normally I don't like so much space, but it works well here.

8 - Oh, good. Just 'if only' more detail in the ladybug and possibly also (wouldn't hurt the shot minimalistic-wise either), even tighter at the bottom to reduce the OOF, in my opinion.

On of the best I have seen so far, the colors are very bright and the ladybug really stands out. I might have lower the perspective so the concrete or what ever she is walking on was not shown so much but that is just me. Best of luck, a 9 for now

Nice composition, but I wouldn't leave so much green background: If you leave the width as it is and crop the height to equal the width the impression would be better!
