Oops, I said I gave you a 10 and I see it was only a 9, because I forgot to do that final bump. Sorry about that, I will give you an 11 next time, and say it was 10. Still love the picture.

It's OK. The flowers and trees and clouds are a bit distracting, the rest of it's quite good though.

Simply the best. This is a beautiful, original, searing photograph. Tones, shapes, movement and dynamism, all out of what we lesser mugs would see as nothing, or more likely not see at all. No way to forget this, and why would I want to? 10 and the True Blue Thumb for You. Thank you.

Fabulous. Thrilling, compelling picture. It's the Red Thumb for you, and 9, and thank you.

Beautiful, unexpected, original. Landscape as life. Life as landscape too. Yellow thumb for you. 9. Thank you.

Love the picture because its vibrant and interesting, and offers an unfamiliar point of view. Some might argue it's not a landscape, but I've seen their landscapes and you'd do well to ignore them, just as you have. Lovely tones too, but the best thing is it's something original and thoughtful. Good for you. 8.

Nice if fairly standard composition. Unusual tones, but that's a good thing given the otherwise uninspired point-of-view. 6.

From Asia to Europe in 20 Minutes

Most landscapes are boring, and this one has nothing much to suggest otherwise. It's a competent enough photograph, but of nothing of interest. Light tower, ferry and distant skyline; it really doesn't do justice to this wonderfully exotic, vibrant location. But for a few visually insignificant minarets and domes, it could be Blackpool or somewhere equally drab and dull. There must be a more ambitious and original point of view than this. 5.

Nice light but not much of interest beyond that. It feels a bit two-dimensional and short on ambition as far as point-of-view goes. Safe enough as a landscape photograph, but safe only reaches as far as middle of the pack. Safe just can't get you any further than that. 5.
