Great contest!

Thank you for entering the competition I like the way the flower fills the bottom of the frame. The decision to show the rear side made it stand out from the general yellow flower shot. The drops of water really add to the photo.

Thank you for entering the colour yellow. A good example of right place at the right time. I like the lone figure in the mass of yellow. It's a very atmospheric photo which tells the viewer a story . The path in the rice twisting away is good and my eye follows it into the photo

Thanks for entering the competition. I am always in awe of anyone who has the patience to hone their skills enough to do shots like this. I like the use of yellow as a background colour. The shape of the water is very sculptural and well caught

I kept coming back to this one. It's a very gentle image. I love the softness of the main focus and the soft yellows behind. It stood out from the sea of bright yellows. It's something I would have on a wall at home. Thanks for entering.

Thank you for entering this macro in the yellow competition. I love the clarity in this. Great detail and clarity on the face and hairy bits on the beast. Usually they are too fast for us to get a good look at their faces. but here it is the danger face of an angry thing.

Thank you for entering Yellow. I like the softness in this image , the more pastel yellow works well. There is a good clear view of the layers inside this rose. The few drops of water add to it and is pleasing to the eye. A very gentle image

Thank you for entering yellow. Good architectural shot, bold bright colours with yellow being dominant. The curve at the top adds an almost abstract feel to the whole image. I like the decision to start the shot at the point of the building you chose.

Thank you for entering. Although there is some yellow blue is more dominant however I really like it. It's a beautiful image which has a sense of peace and elegance about it. I hope you enter this into a forthcoming competition titled ballet I have pending.

thank you for entering yellow. I like this as a still life but it also has a bit of a story. We see the raw material, the technique and the end product. Nice reflections as well . Classic style thanks

Thank you for entering yellow. This reminds me of the Spirograph set I had when I was younger. Well done on this technique and colour. I The Kaleidoscope effect really works with this colour combination. Well done on doing something out of the box

i like the almost abstractness of this macro. the partial petals flowing into the bottom of the shot is very pleasing to my eye, almost a waterfall of yellow coming from the green and white at the top. Thanks for entering

Thank you for entering the colour yellow. This certainly fills the brief to fill the shot with yellow. It wasn't the only yellow with water flower in the mix but what tipped it into the top 10 was the hanging drops showing up on the background. The top one almost ready to fall. . Lovely shot.

Than you for entering Yellow. I chose this to be in the top 10 because of the detail. This bee is covered in a fine film of pollen. Well done on capturing that so clearly as well as the pollen detail on the flower

Thank you for entering the yellow competition. This is right on brief. Yellow is dominant. What I like is the texture in the wood and the indented and raised hearts on the shutters. Good with just the right amount of white round the edges

Thank you for entering. I like the full on graduated yellow in this. Nice line which draws my eye round the corner to the darker yellows dissolving into a green. Nice curves it has to be in the top ten
