Maybe it's my monitor but 2/3rd of this is totally black and I can find no detail in it. This overwhelms the rest of the photo which is quite good.

Afternoon Cue in Blue

Nice picture of a dramatic sky, but I don't fully understand the tie in to the theme. I suppose the end of the wing could be considerd framing, but only in the loosest possibly interpretation.

Sorry, but where is the frame in the foreground that frames the rest of the image?

As I was thinking about the challenge, this was the first image that came to mind and one I was unsuccessful capturing with the style and grace you gave this one. You have executed it flawlessly. I like the high key approach. Composition, focus, DOF, levels are perfect. Very very well done. Among my top 10 this time out. (9)

I don't much care for the style of this picture but have to give credit where credit is due. It nicely meets the challenge. It is technically virtually flawless. And it carries a nice emotional punch. Among my top picks this time out. (9)

This is a much more interesting and complex image than the thumbnail lead me to expect. The lighting and focus on the stone is very very good. And the focus on the bridge (fortunately aided by the haze which will cover some sins) is excellent. Based on trying a similar shot, I kow this isn't so easy. Well done. (9)
