I'm hoping to leave comments on as many photo's in this challenge as possible... this was one of the few images I scored a 10.

Most of my tens are awesome sunset, landscape photos, this is the only "portrait" style photo that made the top tier for me. I don't know what it is about this photo that speaks to me, but the inherent sadness on the boys face really moves me, and that is the mark of a fantastic photo. Good luck for a strong finish in the challenge.

There are quite a few sea/sunset pictures in this challege, but this one is simply awesome. I love how the sea has fogged due to the long exposure, and the sunset looks incredibly beautiful. Great depth of field, and definition.

Lunar photography generally looks incredible when done well, and this is no exception. This photo would have pride of place in any observatory or planetarium. It's got to be in line for a ribbon!

With the amount of sunset pics on show in this challenge, it is refreshing to see a shot of the moon instead. Nicely positioned, and the saturation of the blue is lovely. Would look nice on my wall :-)

Good luck for a strong finish in this challenge.

I love the almost monochromatic feel to this image, with the hint of blue at the top giving the shot that little bit extra. Nicely controlled exposure on the snow.

Good luck for a strong finish in this challenge.

Nice take on an often photographed bridge. The yellow really compliments the blue, and I like the fisheye effect.

Good luck for a strong finish in this challenge.

Lots of water/mountains shots in this challenge, but I really like this one, the yellows, greens and blues are vibrant yet dark, and not a bit overpowering unlike in some of the other shots.

Good luck for a strong finish in this challenge.

Heh, I hope this was submitted by Ricardo Bevilaqua, as it's in his photo.net portfolio, and his Flickr site too :-)

Nonetheless a beautiful hue to the upsala (it was googling for "upsala" to figure out what the hell it was that I discovered Ricardo's pictures.

Good luck for a strong finish in this challenge.

There are a few close up flower shots in this challenge, this is one of the best. It looks to me very much like a dinosaurs head, with two great curly tusks at the front. Sharp in all the right places, but it does suffer from a fair bit of noise and dust as far as I can see. Nice shot.

Good luck for a strong finish in this challenge.

The thing I love about this shot in comparison to all the other sunset/sunrise pictures in this challenge is the understated hues. The pinks and blues are so subtle and light as to almost not be there. Pretty much every other shot in this vein has the colours so saturated that they overpower the image. Nice work!

Good luck for a strong finish in this challenge.
