ahh wide open spaces .. definitly can see future and freedom ... I kinda wish that the horizon of the photo was a little lower than closer to the center - but the colors are nice and vivid

this image and detail of opinion is awesome ... i took agree and am in a similar situation .. great job! if i voted i'd give it a nine ... i'd like to see more colors though ... maybe on the papers ...
the body shop cosmetic stores www.thebodyshop.com use to have a poster and slogan with an over sized (more realistic babrbie doll) on a chassie and the logo was "there are only 8 people in the world that are supermodels" or something like that ... showing that being curvier isnt a bad thing :)

Money Machine

hey there from the CC Club ...
interesting theme and composition for the matrix challenge ... the lighting is kinda harsh on the coins which blows out the detail in the metal ... but the placement of the sunglasses does cut the image in thirds which is easy on the eyes. the paper money background is a nice touch with the image ... gives it a soft feel - maybe to show innocence and maybe even gullability (sp?) to the general public of those who dont know of the matrix? i dunno .. i'm kinda going off subject .. but over all it's a nice interpretation ... great job ..

Orange saver at the blue lake

hi there from the CC Club

this photo does meet the challenge nicely .. the nature state of the blue and orange works well and the composition lets everything stand out on its own and come together very well.
I would have to say if the live saver was a little brighter may have bumped the score up a little .. but i do stil like the immediate contrast of the blue and orange. i like the way you cropped just half of the saver in the photo .. although what i think would look cool too if you can move the life saver was to have the blue sky in the middle of the ring ... but it looks like that it's securely fastened to the pole ... the simple black border also works nicely ... keep up the good work :)

three pairs

hi there from the CC club
nice choice of subject for complementary colors ... certainly meets the challenge ... however i think if the colors were more vibrant or more "in your face" the image in a whole would have scored higher.
the composition works well here .. the staggered currancy with the appropriate complementary colors against the black background and the detail in the money is well executed. I think this is a nice original idea - but if you focused in on one pair i think it may have given it a more impact on the viewer .. keep up the good work ... ayme

African Daisies in a Bed of Ferns

Hey there from the CC Club ...

this is a very nice shot - especially for the camera that was used and the techinique that you executed :)
the colors are nice and vivid and purplue and green certainly are secondary colors .. so you definitly met the challenge.
the composition of the image also works very well .. i do like the fact that the background isnt totally blurry - making out the fern leaves works really well and also leads the eye towards the flower in the left corner ... the clarity and detail along the petals and inner part of the flower is very good .. its sometimes hard with that cam .. i have one too - but you mastered it pretty well :)
i think the pollen actually sets off the other colors nicely .. adds an extra kick to the image - if that makes any sense :)
keep up the good work!
