Reluctant To Wake

The frame is horrible and doesn´t do anything for me personally but detract attention from the photo. That aside and trying to ignore the frame the shot is very nice and I love the lighting and the high key feel to it. Especially like the tones and composition along with the soft focus in the image. Ended up giving it an 8, good job.

For my personal taste this is too bright and not nearly as mysterious if you would have been if you had used a couple of stops less light, either in aperture or faster shutter speed. Anyway, nice Idea but doesn´t quite hit the spot with me.

The best of the "william tell" photos in the contest in my opinion and I love it, especially the expression on the kid wich is what makes it work in my opinion but I didn´t give it a 10 because it isn´t very original. Still very good, 9 from me.

I hope you are good with the bow and arrow...

Lol, that expression is priceless. I gave it a 7 despite the technical problems in this particular shot as this photo made me smile. Could use a contrast boost though and some more light from beneath to bring out some detail in the dogs fur but good job.

Not a bad idea but the splash really blends into the backround and therefore loses a lot of visual impact and the glare from your lighting in the top of the apple drags it down. Is that apple juice?

Not a bad idea but the harsh lighting makes harsh shadows wich I don´t like and the cropping of the bottom of the apple bothers me a bit too. Good effort though and good idea.

Love the tonal range and contrast in this shot, only thing missing is a great sky as a backdrop and you would probably have gotten a 10 from me.

Lovely location you found here, I don´t think there is anything wrong with this shot at all, good clarity, sharpness, colours and contrast. I just don´t find it very interesting, that´s all. Also, I can´t help but wonder what the rest of the lake looks like, without having a clue on what is to the right of the frame here I desperatly want to find out and I feel when I am looking at this as this is just the left half of the shot and you cut out the right half. Anyway, still way better than most shots in the challenge and very well technically done, I gave it an 8.

Nice, I like the soft focus and think it was the correct choice for this challenge. Good colours and focus and pretty much the only thing I could say that could have been done better is the composition wich I think is too centered and I personally don´t find this very interesting. Gave it an 8 though, I like it.

Not bad at all, I like this but I think this would have looked better in low key rather than high key but what the hell do I know. Good shot, I gave it a pretty high score, hope you do well.
