OK, one of the kind of comments I hate: I wish that person in the background were on the other team and sneaking up on this one. :-) While it is a cooly shaped piece of whatever, I'm not sure why you chose to give over about a third of your image to the canister being hidden behind. It also looks like the image might be slightly rotated clockwise. I'd either go for a more extreme angle, or level it out.

Lucky find. Well, unless you went out and MADE the sign be upside down... This is a little dark and kind of flat -- although I do recognize that it's probably morning/evening. A quick tweak in PS (or whatever editing program) would bring out the levels a little better I think.

Roll Over

Comment:
When I first saw this, I thought, "Wow, someone got lucky and found a flipped car after all!" Nice little optical illusion. I think I would have tried to further that illusion by shooting it away from the grass that your flash managed to catch. The trees and other things, if far enough in the background wouldn't be an issue in terms of relative size. I'd also like to see it in daylight specifically to play off those trees and that car in the background and some other things. Maybe not possible, but I think it would be fun to try. Good work. :-)

I don't get the challenge aspect. (The only thing that looks like it might be upside down is one of the pictures right in the middle but under all the others. The only other thing I can think is the "Asia's on the other side of the world from me" take -- but that's very subjective to my geographical point of view.) It's an interesting montage of photos that looks great. Depending on the look you're going for, it seems a little too yellow to be sepia-toned -- I might try backing off on that a bit.

Comment:
Nice title. :-) I started to comment that a slightly straighter camera orientation would be nice. Then I realized it probably was fairly straight, but since the birds were all on one side of the feeder, it's hanging crooked. The low-light noise mars the picture -- probably not a lot you can do about that because I'm guessing this was an early morning/late evening photo. I think I might have cropped this a little tighter so that there's an even margin between bird and border at top and bottom. Also, maybe using the 640x427 image size to accentuate the very thin vertical nature of the shot.

Comment:
GREAT idea. I'd love to see this one shot again on a day with bright blue skies and puffy white clouds. As it stands, though, the only comment I have is that I think I'd have tried to get rid of the air bubbles in the water, and the water spots on the upper part of the glass. Make it a perfect "lens" without all the "imperfections".

Butterfly Resting
by indigo997

Comment:
Difficult shot. Always got to get the bugs before they go away. I wish I could see more of the butterfly's head. Like the depth of field. the dark portion of the building up in the UR corner draws my eye a little bit. I think the best comment I can make would be to have shot from the other side of the fence -- obscure the back side of the butterfly, but not the head. Maybe use a piece of white paper to bounce a little light onto the b's wing.

Comment:
The loose change is a perfect touch. A personal preference would be to make this just a touch more contrasty (in particular, the shadows a bit darker). The only real "flaw" I can see is relatively minor. The lighting on the right hand is stronger than on the left. (All I can see is white on the right, but I can see background on the left.)

Upside Down Glock
by David Ey

Comment:
Interesting how you used what I assume is your last entry in this one -- and that it mimics the shape of the gun. I would have tried to do two things: include all the gun in the picture (it looks like even if the goblet were removed it still wouldn't quite have the end of the muzzle on screen) and I would have tried to figure out a different way to prop up the gun rather than the goblet (something behind the handle, maybe?). The lighting on the background is a little uneven. Without knowing your lighting set up, I can't make any really constructive comments there.

Blue Moon Spoon
by greenem2

Comment:
All of the following maybe be totally useless comments -- it all depends on your objective with the shot. I think the sides of the face are under- and over- lit respectively. There's not quite enough detail on the one side because there's too much light, and on the other because there's too little. I wondered about making the head a little bigger, getting a little closer, but since I don't know how the spoon would reflect it, I can't say if that's a wise comment or not. Regardless, excelently done.
