where will his path lead? (mommy's mystery)

Comment:
It is a mystery isn't it? Strong emotive image you've put together here, at least for parents. We've all been there. Technically it's put together just fine. Well done!

Big points for humor! ;^) You've actually given some thought to the way the final image came out as well. I say that because the subjects (hitchhiker and sign) are well positioned in the frame, the image is well focused with a good DOF and well-balanced lighting. Even the sky cooperated for you. I'd wish you luck, but I don't think you'll need it. Congrats on a nice image and I'm sure a nice score.

"Oh s@#%"

The expression on the bikers face matches your title 110%! ;^) This is a fun image and it works well for this challenge. Composition is good, lighting/exposure is fine, only thing I would like to see is maybe a bit more contrast (and/or deepen the blacks a little). Good luck in the challenge.

A very strong statement that is befitting of the challenge. Love your title as the photo tells the story, particularly considering the theme of this challenge. You've done a nice job in capturing this shot with correct exposure and a good, sharply focused subject. I do find the background a little distracting (especially the competing points of light). Best of luck to you in the challenge.

The Habit

It will be interesting to see how this "political statement" type image does with the voters. I imagine an inverted bell curve - either they'll love it or hate it. ;^) Personally, I like both the "statement" and the image. The exposure on this is right on the money. Very challenging shot to get just right. Good detail in the face, and sharp as a tack. Well done! My top pick for this challenge.

Escaping from the Can

Comment:
This is a really cute idea. Put this on a black (or dark) background with a spotlight type effect in lighting and you'd score a couple of points higher in the challenge I think. As is, it's a little grainy and slightly overexposed. The 'escapee' also blends in too much (hence the spotlight idea). Anyway, best of luck to you in the challenge.

Peas in a Pot

The composition of this works well with nice lines and good balance it the objects used. I think it's a bit underexposed and the peas could have more impact if not frozen - JMO of course. Good luck in the challenge.

Peas on the Cob

The things we do for challenge entries! ;^) Very clever. I like the composition overall. The foreground peas are not lit well enough and I think the white background could be whiter. Overall, nicely done. Good luck in the challenge.
