 Thanks to the commenters! The below average score is a tough pill to swallow. I didn't expect to be the only BW in the challenge!

ahhh shoot - i was gonna leave a comment during the challenge. I gave this a 7. I love the scene - with the crayons in the foreground and the action happening in the background. Perfect lighting for this as well.

Great DOF and textures. Very original and nicely processed in black and white.

I love the strong black and white effect in a challenge where a lot of people were trying to emphasize strong saturated colors.

Kids and crayons...your focus is very good on the crayons in the foreground and your background compliments the foreground...very well done

I love this shot. Really nice. Proof that a crayon shot doesn't have to be full of colors. One of my favorites so far.

Nice! Love the contrast between the light subject matter and the dramatic processing and composition. One of my faves.

A very unique and creative look at crayons - the image meets the subject matter dead on with subtle, yet detailed effect. A terrific demonstration of the creative process in meeting the challenge in a very unusual way using black and white imagery. A couple of minor detail problems not worth mentioning because they don't appear until you really get a critical eye and examine the image closely. Well done.

Ah you were brave enough to go B+W !!! I didn't have the courage in a "colourful" challenge... Well done! Lovely clarity and atmosphere. Really captures the essence of the challenge. Extra points for going where I didn't have courage to go... :-)
