Submit it for any challenge you like, mate. It's masterful in any context.

That's a lovely, harmonious composition. Such an interesting idea to give a massive subject such a light, airy processing treatment ... and it works, for me. Nice name for a ship, 'Fortune Spirit'. Rather better than one I saw a shot of recently; it was named for solar system bodies, and was called 'Titan Uranus'.

Aha! I suspected as much.

Stop this! Stop it now! Another beautiful image of which I am exceedingly jealous. See comments on "Jetty & Flats".

This is magnificent! I've been telling myself that I REALLY don't need a 20D/350D. My little Olympus is perfectly fine, I tell you ... fine! You and this damn lens have once again cruelly exposed the flimsy construction of my fortress of self-delusion. Mercy! I submit! Mercy!

I love this unusual composition. You perhaps chose this point-of-view mainly to be discrete, but I think you should claim to have done it deliberately because it makes for a fascinating image with a lot of artistic merit. There will be those who protest that the foreground booth, the chair, the window frames, etc are distracting. Take no notice whatsoever! 9

It's very appealing; a pretty model with perfect skin, hair & eyes for your idea, great little details (the white background/top lip/straps), slightly off-centre composition & asymmetrical shoulder level creates just a tiny hint of tension, and the understated presence of the milk puts emphasis where it should be (on the charming model) without weakening the overall Dairy theme of the shot. 9

Ha! Love this ... it's a terrific capture to have seen and photographed three such similar ladies so effectively. Contrary to what most people would imagine, it's quite unusual for this level of similarity of markings, especially together. You certainly made the most of the opportunity! 8

Deserved so much more, Ramon. Alas, too many conventional thinkers (actually, too many who don't appear to think at all). Nevertheless, you did improve your challenge record a bit, which was probably of little consequence to you. And you taught a few a lovely new word. But more to the point, you surely achieved your goal vis-a-vis personality, as the many appreciative comments below attest. Thanks to both of you. Bravo!

A technically masterful but alas conceptually cheesy nude study. Fabulous lighting and really superb photography in every respect but one; I just can't get past that bad taste factor. 7
