Home Made Chocolate Cream Pie
by Diana

Comment:
While I think the pie looks ooooh so good, for me there is one or two too many objects layered behind the pie. The blue & white plate with partial fork in particular. Hope that helps.

The confident pose and expressions are what draw me most to this entry. Nice work!

Moments Mothers Treasure
by mandyturner

This gets a 9 from me. Wonderful expression on the child's face and unique composition with the mom's back to the camera. I think I can see burn marks around them on the wall - that's the only reason I'm not voting 10.

Wonderful! I love how blank the sheets and wall are to set off these three. Fantastic tones.

unconditional love

This is so heartwarming. There are other similar compositions in this challenge, but this one has the most natural - least soft-focus / neatimage of them all, and therefore I like this one best. I love the way the baby is staring right at the camera, blowing those spit bubbles, and smiling :-) The tones (technical and emotional) are perfect in every way.

Mother Nature - The birth of a tornado

Awesome in the true sense of the word! Fantastic processing - can't wait to read any notes you might have added. Love that dark, dark cloud converging with the super bright white, and then all those muddy, undefinable colors in between. Great job.

Wonderful entry! It's a busy shot, which fits the composition and the title perfectly. There's not a single thing that shouldn't be in the image. I love this, especially the spaghetti head baby :-)

A Walk on The Beach
by ZorbaTheGeek

Comment:
The brights are a little too bright for my eyes, but I really like the abstractness of this. I like the way the sand merges with the water so that appears the pair is about to walk into the sea. Nice color choice, too. It's just those highlights that bother me, on this monitor at least.

Very cute, Rikki! And here I was questioning my own taste in my choice of postcards to you :) This picture is sure to bring a smile to everyone's face in future Christmasses when you haul it out (year after year), and put it lovingly on the mantle. :P

Mother Swan Protecting Her Young
by LVE

Comment:
I wish I could see the mother swan's young. It's a nice shot, but (in my non-professional view) it would be nicer if the swan weren't so tightly cropped . She deserves a little room to swim towards the right. The beak and eyes are really nice colors.
