A small step for a man.

I like this image a lot except for one little detail - the people at the top center. This would have been a top ten for it's beauty and surreal, almost ethereal landscape - a fantasy land, but the color at the top just sort of ruins the overall impact - for me that is - my opinion. Still, I under rated this and moved from a 7 to a 8.

Another time, distance and space image with a lot to recommend it in those terms. I can't really find anything that I'd want to complain about - maybe a tad too much space at the top of the image - a crop would have been warranted. Still, my initial impression was related to the empty space, so I've change this from a 7 to a 9.

Tranquility personified. Very nice capture.

I struggled with this image - I have the concept just fine - sense of loss, impending doom if you will, darkness and all the associated sense of foreboding - got it. There's nothing wrong technically, I just am not overwhelmed by a positive response to the image.

Way to light, needed some more post processing to bring out some detail - the over all image seems much too washed out.

A good sound image that captures the run of climbing a hill and looking at the scenery.

Because I'm broken

Another image that I originally under rated during my rating pass. I've done an injustice to this - it is incredibly detailed, the title is perfect, the overall emotional impact is purposeful and contemplative. A brilliant capture and worthy of a 10 and certainly a top 5 place.

A terrific moment in time at the Misión la Purísima Concepción de María Santísima. I originally rated this 8 but I've changed my mind after several viewings - this is a 10 for sure. (One of my good friends is a Friar and I spent some time there.)
