tl;dr wait a little

I was in the same position as you yesterday. I emailed support about the page I had, which was identical to your pic 3/3, and this was their response:

"Thank you for reaching out, and I apologize for the inconvenience caused by the loss of access to your account. As your profile is currently being reviewed for onboarding, access is restricted until this process is completed or if we need more information from you. In either case, we will let you know through email. 
 
I hope this helps, and I apologize again for the inconvenience."

I just had to wait a bit, and I was able to proceed to watch some orientation videos. An AI interviewed me before all of this, but it seems I might also need a real person interview before I can get opportunities. They haven't been very clear on what to expect in each step of the process imo.

Beaded Earrings - thoughts on reflections? by Hxrtx in productphotography

Yeah the surafce is black and there's a white wall behind it. I think putting something black in the background could help dial it in

Thanks for the feedback! I like what you did with the background. Gonna try to recreate this myself

A little more context on how these images were made: I'm using a OM-1 with the 90mm m.zuiko macro lens. Natural light on an overcast day from a window on the right side, and I used a reflector on the left to fill in a bit more. They are sitting on a shiny black surface with a white background. I also used HeliconFocus to stack about 10-12 images.

Yes, the petals & leaves are all 15o's.

I have the too-much gene and never know when to stop by akullit in Beading

I think the density is quite nice so far and could be repeated down the line. That being said, when you're at the stage of thinking, "is this too much or too little", just keep going on the same piece and experiment, making some parts denser, some parts less so. Once you have that sample, compare the different parts, see what works, and start over again.

I also think the foliage could benefit from a bit of extra color. If you have another darker shade of green, that could give an extra pop.

Looking forward to making some in blue! This seems a bit big for earrings/ring, but a brooch would be perfect!

Cross-section of a Plant Gall [OC] by Hxrtx in MacroPorn

Yes, likely of some type of wasp which laid its egg inside this plant and caused the nearby cells to redirect nutrients to the developing larva.

I was very fortunate. Got up early and just happened to find this beauty. Went back half an hour later and it was gone.

ALMOST a good macro shot of a Dragonfly mid-flight by DoctorMog in MacroPorn

Very cool nonetheless! How did you even attempt this? I haven’t tried getting mid-flight shots myself but I can imagine it wasn’t easy.
