I seemed to have missed you creeping back into this 52.
Creature, Nice owl, I suspect you couldn't see the cage wires when you took the picture. If you had you could have moved the camera slightly to the right so the owl was between both
of them.
Dark, a very interesting take on the theme, nice light on the shell. Good effort that looks better on Flickr.
Hard, the Bee appears to be slightly out of focus or it's moving too fast for the shutter speed. Nice green OOF backgound to show off the subject.
Elegant, can't argue with a swan, being picky, but are some of his feathers overexposed?
Autumn, nice collection of coloured leaves, green plant interloping on the right hand side should be removed as it draws attention, quick clone in Photoshop (Other editors are available) should sort it out.
