Alone no more...

Frightening and provocative photo. Visually and technically superb, which adds to the effect. I'm worried about the motivation behind the photo, and I hope that the topic of this image isn't being exploited- images have power to do good and bad... ***as a side note, I rated yours and "You are never alone" the same, though the images are almost totally different, almost opposites. I'm curious to see how you both place.

Lonely

Effective photo. When just looking at the image without knowing the title, you can see sadness, whether the sadness is from loneliness, mourning, or anything else. I think when you get down to the pure emotions like this, it makes it easier for any person to "feel" the photo. Well done.

Sound Waves...or...Can You Hear Me Now?

Very, very good photo, technically. I wonder about the girl's expression, though, as she isn't smiling with her eyes. It disturbs the mood by adding confusion to the basic atmosphere of innocent curiosity.

Beautiful color. The three dark spots in the photo are a little distracting, though, but you can't (and shouldn't) touch up nature.

Acid Rain

This is actually.... a more presentable, clean, startling view of death (roadkill?). It's absolutely striking. This is excellent and sad, and its exact enough to view with a purely scientific eye. This unfortunately probably won\\\'t score high overall because it\\\'s not a postcard photo, but be assured that you\\\'ve done very well to capture a very difficult subject. You *should* score in the top, even if you don\\\'t.

Very nice - an uncommonly nonsuperficial photo. I wish the level of focus was slightly more to the foreground.

oh well- i still think you should have scored among the top photos, if not have been the winner. obviously only mainstream, postcard styles will "win" in the dpchallenge, but don't worry- I really like this photo, and I'm sure others do too. you wouldn't have prints available would you?
