"Tax Time"

It's crazy. I don't know why I like this photo. Maybe it's because the lighting is right out of a product commercial : it's cold, its uniform, it's unrelenting. Nobody every uses this for portraiture. The guy behind the computer should be a tall skinny guy with thick black hair wearing a pinstriped suit. And if you close your eyes there he is.

Very unusual. This photo breaks most of the rules, but I like it for the expression and the fact that the mount and eye are what we see.

Sorry, in this viewer's eyes this is a godawful ugly guitar, and the photo just happens to be entirely about this ugly monster.

Love the color. Was there no way to get the great sweep of the curved bridge into the photo?

This is among the more photogenic bridges seen in this competition. And this is one of the good ones.

It's made to look like it's a bridge in the middle of nowhere without so much as a road to connect to it. The lighting is strong and makes us focus on the bridge. The composition is simple and compelling.

I don't understand. Is this the veiw from the bridge of a whaling ship or something? I simply do not understand anything in th photo. In any case, the photo is too dark and flat - probably because the auto exposure saw too much snow. Bad compositon, lighting, exposure.

I have the impression that the material in the foreground, if exposed correctly could be quite drammatic and gory. And the snow in the background would be a good foiil. Finally, it would be more helpful if we know what it is - even if the title tells us this. And we can draw our own conclusions from the content of the photo.

The bridge works perfectly with its environment. It's a little hard to believe that the railing was quite that green and the rest of the composition that black and white. Whether it complies with the rules or not, it is a nice aesthetic choice to make. Those icecicles are really the 'icing' on the cake. Nice.

Strong concept. Good Exposure. The telephone pole and clearnce sign are a bit distracting.
