I am ever so envious. I have searched high and low around these parts and simply cannot find any of these. Great capture, nice post processing. Hope you do well.

I rather liked this image and gave it an 8. The colours and the hazy effects are exactly what I did like about this photo and it reminded me of some of the images I have seen depicting spirituality.

Very nicely done.

A beautiful image but I am intrigued by the spots in the sky that look almost like sun flares. I do hope you will provide some information as to the type of mine this is. Good luck to you with the challenge.

I am ever so impressed by the quality of the final product and absolutely awed at how you did it. This is truly a very creative piece of art and I for one will add this to my Favorites.

Very nicely done.

A beautiful and sharp image of a stunning vista. I would hazard a guess that the photo was taken with a 10-22 lens at 5.6 which makes the building look a tad slanted. Good luck in the challenge.

Congratulations on a well earned ribbon my friend. I did comment to a friend that this image really seemed like your "Genre". Some have pretty ladies with big eyes and scarves... others... beat up old things.

Very well done, and keep them coming.

Oldest Sons Entry for Native American Men Calendar

A very nice image of an attractive young man. If I might offer a small critique, I think you should have taken the photo later in the day when he sun was not quite as harsh, and you might have changed the F-stop to blur the background a tad more.

Nicely done... your talents are progressing quite nicely.

Feeding Frenzy

A valiant attempt but, the harsh lighting, coupled with the lack of focus will prove detrimental to your score. On the good side, it is a very chaotic scene. You had enough chaos with the ants on the right hand side of the image that you truly did not need those on the left... they only serve to distract.

Good luck with the challenge.

An absolutely stunning assortment of what I believe are African Cichlids. Good colours, DOF but you could have used a faster speed as some of the fish are somewhat blurred due to motion.

Nicely done... I will you well in the challenge.
