A Hundred A Day While My Mind Runs Wild

Does Gary K walk among us mere mortals again ??

I really can't put my finger one what makes this image so effective. There doesn't seem to be anything particularly out of the ordinary about it, yet I feel compelled to give it an 8. That's the power of simplicity I guess. NIce idea, great execution = high score. Simple equation - and one that you have clearly perfected. (apologies if I have the identiy of that shaved head wrong).

broken or bust?

I just came across this. I gave it an 8 during voting but it probably should have been more. It's not all that often that I think an image that scored over 6 was hardly done by. This is one of those times.

INteresting shot - if this was just the hand I wouldnt have been impressed - and would have seen it as merely a lesser version of one of the last waldo challenges ribbon winners. The purple paint is, however, a nice touch, and the little boy figure hidden in the paint seals the deal. 9

Really great silhouette. Nice tones. Overall a joyous image. I think you should have cloned out some of the bushes on the lower right and maybe eliminated the moon, but I like the concept and execution here. 7.

Really quite clever... Not too fussed about the lighting here - bit dark for my tastes. But I laughed so that's enough to get you a 7.

Interesting idea and execution. The soft focus/ high key effect is terrific here. I'd say the subject matter will likely keep you out of ribbon territory, but your technical skill is tremendous. 8.

Really nice execution here - love the contrast between the true-colour legs and the blue cast bicycle. My only qualm is that the shoes don't look particularly athletic :)... but we can't exactly expect you to go out and buy a new pair now can we. 8.

More time looking; less time shooting

This image is incredibly pleasing. Beautiful scene and excellent post-processing. On one level this image is positively serene - but then the post processing throws that a little off kilter - challenges the serenity if you will, which makes for a really dramatic and effective landscape shot. I'm almost certain of the photographer here - Let's just say that if voters are a little flexible with the challenge you should have even more green on your profile page after this. (Of course that statement is to be ignored if you are not in fact Ed Clarke or e301).
