much congrats crabby - i didn't see it during the challenge, but this has been a favorite of mine ever since i first saw it (well, the more edited one is clearly superior, but this one is quite good too ;))

beautiful shot. you have some wonderful bird shots - this 'expression' is a truly great capture.. almost like it heard something over its shoulder (you?) and turned to look. what lens did you use on these shots?

poweful and striking image - well done. unfortunately, your style and nudity probably won't be accepted well =( - but i think it's a fantastic shot and to heck with what anyone else thinks! ;)

The Rock

Comment:
was about to tell you how bleak the sky and water looked, then read your comments and realized that they're desaturated! the island's colors look wonderful, but i think maybe a tighter crop on the sky or water (traditionally i would crop the water, but this is THE ROCK after all - so i dunno) may make it look slightly better

great saying, have never heard that before. not sure i would say the bokeh here really helps - maybe it was intended to, but it just seems like a mesh of colors that detract from the cold steel look of the foreground. sorry if i missed something here.

beautiful image, and i must saw that this is one case that the bokeh definitely contributes to the power/effect of the image.. very well done.

beautiful - one of my favorites thus far, but probably will suffer depending on voter interpretation of the challenge
