Wow I'm glad you were inspired to make so many icons! (I'm a he btw :D but thank you so much for the compliments, I'm super happy you liked the theme of the round!)
Look I feel I need to say something about the fact that this is way more than the 4-21 icons allowed for this round, but I think I'll actually allow this, because I've allowed makers to make two separate normal-sized entries and these can be looked at as two separate sets in one post, which would be no different from that precedent. Which kind of raises the question if you'd like to enter the alternative set (texture-heaviness vs Vibrance) as well? I don't see why it couldn't be in the voting too, since it's complete and fulfills the challenge. Anyway, just thought I'd explain my logic in case someone else wonders why this is allowed, I'll need to come up with more exact ruling on the icon amount.
Anyway, to the icons! :> In the simple set I absolutely adore 12 - it has a lovely painting-like look, the coloring is super lovely, love the extreme far crop and overall it just looks like something out of a storybook. The glossy negative space on 11 is great and I love the crops in 1 & 4 (this is why your y axis was a great choice, intuitively these would go both go in the center but they look so great in the unexpected top placement!). The lighting and coloring in 7 is gorgeous and I also love the matte look on 13.
In the complex side of things I'm so in love with 19!! The colors are so clear and bright and the crop is evocative and different. 23 is gorgeous, love the bright blues and the text use on the background. The bottom row has many awesome icons, especially 27 (gorgeously eyecatching coloring), 29 (the blending!) and 30 (perfect coloring and compostion).
The third table is great too, I especially love the coloring on 13 and the fun neon look in 15. The painty pastelly look on 3 is all kinds of awesome (the alt for this is amazing as well), and the colorings on 9 and 10 are spectacular.
