There may be NONE for future generations

A dynamic image - very threatening. Without the title - it would not work. With the title, it comes through the back door.

Undying Hope

I assume this is smoke - and the title implies you can smoke without increasing the chance of dying. I doubt that that hope is a reality. The image itself has some nice pattersn/lines but the tonal range is so slight it becomes un-interesting quickly.

Heck - I thought that was the coffee cup holder. Nice try - but not really a valid hope.... Image is well shot and well printed.

I HOPE this smile will get me a treat

Looks like a beautiful dog - very intent. However - the image is fairly "muddy" - which menas there are no really srong whites in this case. There are good blacks and a lot of grays, but the grays are grouped together on the tonal scale. May be better if the left side were cropped off as it adds little. I really doubt if a dog understands the concept of hope, but since it was a hard challenge to shoot.....

Cute image of the kitty, but I really want to see the eyes. For hope - only the title would tend to lead you in that doirection.

Caged and Broken Hope

Moody and emotional. The position of the shoulders does indeed invoke a feeling of hopelessness. The strong diagonal OOF log in the foreground is really unfortunate. Exposure seems perfect.

The Hopeful Kiss... have I finally found my Prince?

Fairy Tale is next week. Great lighting, the black background works well for this. Exposure seems perfect. I'd suggest you should crop out the nose altogether by cropping down from the top.

Soliloquy

Moody - I like the overall blue cast for this. Compositon is OK - but it seems the rock and the word should probably be a bit closer together. Overall a strong image that should do well.

Relationship

This image give a soft warm feeling, very nice. Lots of emotion keeps it a high score that would be higher yet if a) It was not so centered, and b) The border was less detracting. Thanks for sharing a very stong entry.

Hopeful for a Kiss

It's a nice frog image (but remove the blown out rock in the bottom left corner). The frog is very well exposed and sharp as a tack. But the only hope here is your thinking the voters will buy into your title.
