This is fantastic as an abstract. A bit hard to look at closely because my eyes go batty, but it's just a wonderful catch. One small thing: it seems like it could use a bit of controlled sharpening. In my top 10 of picks for this challenge. Good luck.

I think this is a great shot. However, for whatever reason, circumstance or perhaps lack of sufficent postprocessing, the lighting here isn't as magical as the scene. It seems to lack diversity--it's generally bright and sterile. I personally think that can be dealt with in the postprocessing, unless you are totally satisfied with it as is. Even still, it's in my top 20 picks of this challenge

I've seen this before, but still anonymous because I don't recall who's it is. But I suspect this wonderful photo will capture a ribbon! Simply fabulous.

This should have ended up near the top, not the bottom. Nice colors and effect.

Great action shot, and the tritone works really well here. How long did you have to wait?

A cool follow up to your boxing shot. I don't know how I didn't figure out it was yours! Congratulations, and I hope your eyes are doing better.

I like the colors here, but I think the technique works better with nonsillouetted subjects--somehow light objects against a dark--or even a light background have the most painterly effect (at least in my experience, and I do this a lot! (too much perhaps)

Flying Flowers

Nice idea. I think it would work better if the flowers themselves were sharp as a contrast to the background.
