Well this was my first ever submission. I feel very good that I got a 5.828! While looking at the breakdown I can't believe I received a couple 1's and 2's... On the other hand I can't believe I got some 9's and 10's though :-)

I didn't want all of the bees in focus. I wanted only the one incoming one in focus, so your eyes would be drawn to her as she was the point of the picture.

I am just getting back into photography after a 19 year hiatus from an old Minolta x-7. I am glad I found this website.

The concept is good, but with only the one bee in focus, I can't give it a high score.
