Aww poor little guy. Very cute image, he has sad eyes. Love the black & white, lighting is good. Would prefer the focus to be on the kitten with the words having the soft blur rather than as is. Over all an great photo. 8

Sigh

Beautiful image. Has a sadness yet is very peaceful as well. Lighting is harsh in back but I think it works for this image, model has a nice soft glow to her. I like the composition, would prefer the white thing in the right side to be cropped out - not sure if I like the clothes in the window either, adds some interest but also draws my attention away from the subject. Excellent focus. Simply wonderful. 10

Missing Paco

Nice evocative photo. Black & white really draws the emotion out with its starkness. Use of natural light is great, love the focus, nice and clear. Only real distracting thing I find is the horizon is tilted so the patch of light sky pulls my eyes away a bit. Very nice over all though! 7

The Wave

Beautiful photo, the colors are crisp and clear. Focus is great, I love the feel of the image, a nice energy but still rather peaceful. I don't get a feeling of solitude or loneliness though, so it only fits the challenge generally for me. Still its a gorgeous image. 8

In the forest

The blue in this photo is absolutely gorgeous. Is this augmented or straight from the camera? Nice perspective, colors are fantastic and I like the focus. I wish the light wasn't quite so glaring off the woman's shirt and skin. I don't get a sense of solitude or loneliness from the image, I think the rich warm colors lessen those possible feelings. Does fit all alone in general to me though. Very nice photo. 7

All alone at the game

Good perspective and nice use of space. Helps support the all alone feeling of the image. Nice color, subject stands out nicely. Lighting is used well and focus is good - would like a bit sharper detail near the subject though. Overall a very solid image. 7

"Reflections"

Very nice image. I like the use of b&w here. Lighting helps give a nice peaceful, contemplative mood. Fits the challenge perfectly, and I like the general appeal. Good use of a natural 'everyday' space. The scene looks very pretty as well, I'd love to be sitting there! Well done. 8

Cute image, interesting use of duotone as well. Not getting a feeling of solitude or loneliness due to the happy tone to the image though. Fits the challenge generally. Focus is pretty good, lighting is okay, but a little dark to me. Also would prefer that white stand thing wasn't there, definitely distracts. A fine photo. 5

Walking The Path Alone

Great use of space and distance. B&W color and perspective definitely create the mood and highlight the aloneness. I like the use of natural light as well. 8

lonely little flower

Pretty photo! Great focus, fits the challenge rather well. Love the contrasting colors. I wish the image was a little brighter, or if not overall, have the background dark as it currently is, and a shaft of light on the flower. Very nice capture. 7
