I like the high contrast of this image. Composition is ok and subject is ok. Lighting is off. But overall I think this image stands out from many of the others in the challenge. So this get a solid 6 for standing out and making me really take notice of it.

Very nice composition. Another light on the front side of the barn would have helped in my opinion. The thing I like most of this is the contrast between the barn and the background. Really nice work.

This is a really interesting shot. I like the snow streaks in the sky. The lighting on the tractor is a little off I think but it matches the challenge perfectly. This is really cool. Nice work.

A Study in Backlighting

Challenge was to keep the subject from becoming a silhouette. It didn't but not by much. Quality of the details is severely lacking as well as any interesting points.

Back light is way, way, way too overdone. It just really makes this photo bomb.

This is a beautiful photo but it looks more to be side lighting rather than back lighting.

Colors are good, backlighting is a little over done, but the subject is kinda boring. Seen this same thing in other challenges.

To be honest, the backlighting is what ruined this shot. The skyline and fence with fill light is amazing. PLEASE tell me you have a shot of this without the backlight! It would be awesome. The backlight is just way to harsh and the spill on the ground is highly distracting. If it were not a backlight challenge and that backlight wasn't there I would nail this one at a 7 or 8. Regardless, I am giving it a 5 just because you kept me engaged and looking at it for awhile.
