May not appeal to some but I really like the perspective distortion. The colors are brilliant and it looks like early or late sun - absolutely golden hues! The sky is positively unreal. Great job!

Wow. Technically perfect.

A very unearthly and abstract feel. It almost looks like a science fiction movie ideal of an alien creature. Nice use of dof and the colors are just spot-on. Outstanding shot!

An unusual candid. Good eye for composition. The elements work together nicely. Conversion to BW is excellent - would not have been nearly as effective in color.

Nicely done. That's the Sea of Rainbows (half buried crater on the left), also known as Sinus Iridium. This is an excellent shot from an astrophotography perspective (from someone who knows how hard this is) and a very nice artistic composition!

Beautiful Eyes

Great composition, wonderful personality and life captured in her face, but the lighting and focus seem just a bit off (her skin comes off a bit too yellow). In a portrait like this, the eyes are the powerful draw and they need to be absolutely nailed. Notice how the eyes are a bit soft and the lips seem to be the sharpest focus of the image.

Perfect sports capture. The batter should have a print of this as a framed keepsake forever!

Great potential but a touch too dark, I think. That fence is great and the rough vegetation looks like it has sooo much texture. I feel like you could have improved the comp by getting even close to the fence and getting more detail out of the shadows.

Just gorgeous. Could be a top ten in this challenge (though I'm far from done voting yet). Great definition on the face and eyes and the sprig of grass in the foreground is a nice touch. Great job!

Has a "sherpet-feel" to it. Great depth and vibrant colors. There's also a texture that seems to pop off the screen. Great shot!
