One of the classiest in the challenge. The bow is a little busy, but an overall very nice shot. 9.

Love the original approach. I don't know if this qualifies as classy, but I like it. 8.

Interesting, and classy. Maybe a bit too busy, but one of my top choices. 9.

I don't like the white background behind her head. I think it is too distracting. The light in her eyes is almost sinister. If that sort of feel is what you are going for here it is very good.

I think I would edit the wood, where the blade of grass is in front, to look like the rest of the stick. Other than that it is pretty much perfect. Great shot.

Nothing Like Wind in Your Hair...

This is an interesting and emotive shot that is damaged by the title. The title leads one to believe that you are attempting to portray someone enjoying wind in their hair (like a cool breeze on a warm beach). This photo gives off, very effectively, a sad or lonely feeling. The focus is a wee bit soft which I think is appropriate in this case. The tones are very nice, maybe a bit blown out in the background, but again, appropriate for the sad, lonely feeling. The pose is great. I think it is a great shot that could have scored even higher with the appropriate title. 8.

Saying Goodbye

This is emotional, meets the challenge, has great composition and focus (with the exception of the over abundance of hair covering the face.) The womans posture speaks volumes. Bumping up to 9.

WIND: the Turbines run on it, the Sheep expell it,.!!!!!!!!

The completely cloudy sky and the blade of the windmill leaving the frame at the top are distractions, but pretty good. 6.

Broken Tower Of Wind

I think this has great potential, but would have been better taken as an offset landscape shot. It seems jammed in the frame. Too crowded. Nice focus and color. Interesting subject. 7.
