Very well done. Excellent use of contrasting tonality and composition. I agree that this should have placed higher... Definitely a standout shot.

Patience pays off! One of the best macro shots I've ever seen on DPC.

Easily the best of the bunch. When you get everything else right, you always find something more to work on.... Well I do anyhow...

Feels a bit soft to me and also - like the others - a bit too cool, particularly in the skin tones.

Nice pic. I suspect it's a tiny bit oversharpened, but I think that is probably due to using the wrong sharpening settings for 640x480. Pics are a lot more sensitive to sharpening at this resolution.

One thing that I find helps prevent the data loss and subsequent need for strong sharpening in small sizes is using multiple steps for reducing size. I don't know if you did this or not, but if you didn't, you might want to look into it.

This image really stood out to me during voting. I didn't have enough time to finish voting, but it would have pulled a 9 from me.

Oddly, it's an image that I like more than others that I would have voted 10 on.

I have a strong feeling that the things I don't like about the DPC presentation of this pic are inherent to the DPC presentation only. I would imagine that they are not present in the original.

Very nicely spotted and pulled off.

Interesting use of the odd blurring. It adds a little business to the picture, although I'm not sure I like it 100%. The addition of the reading man really makes the picture.

Nice use of the curve in the stairs too.

By the way, I don't think it's just the woodies. I see a girl at the table on the left that is serruptitiously pointing you out too...

Damned cafe girls.... don't ask.
