nice image and the old house in the background adds an excellent context for the image. it is oof so it does not distract, but distinct enough to be easily see what it is.

Wonderful portrait, the pose is excellent creating a naturally framing with their bodies and arms that focuses the eye towards the center of the image. Also, they create a slight "V" which keeps the bringing the eye back towards the trophy. And, their smiles say it. You have alot to be proud of!

Good Morning, Fine Spring Day

Sandy, you got another winner. There are alot of positives here: the diagonal lines lead the eye into the frame, the lines on the butterfly lead the eye back to the center of the image, the lines on the leaf lead the eye to the center of the image, the range from white to black is great. The only downside is the sparkles in the background, but that is very minor.

B&W is perfect for this - the grittiness matches the sense of street life well. The fact that there is a dark background for the subject helps him stand out that much more.

Good image, a sense of the place. it would be nice to see it a bit tighter on the bike rider without so much background to compete with her.

I like this, it provides a totally unique perspective. Maybe by cloning out the path/ road, it would help the eye focus more on the shadow cast by the bridge.

Yes, I really liked this in the challenge - there is great detail and a sense of mystery with all of the fog. Great shot.

This has strong eye appeal. The fact that the image fades from light to dark and naturally flows from left to right makes it very pleasing. And there is nice detail in the trees. Well done.

A nice, clean portrait with flattering light. I like that that there is no glare spots on the subject.

Nice detail in the building, the sky could be cropped down since it lacks detail and also turn up the contrast a bit. Interesting subject and it really provides alot for the eye to examine.
