I would have cropped this more severely to avoid the bottom and extreme left side of the image. Color is good. Focus seems fine to my old eyes. As I've said elsewhere, this challenge is pretty weak...making it difficult to have an inspired photo.

Good colors. I bet if the background were darker (shot at dusk) this image would be more dramatic. Good job capturing the detail in the flame and logs (not to mention the pumpkin).

Good color and clear for an shot in such light without a flash. I think this was good enough to score even higher if you could have emphasized the "ground up" portion of the challenge, maybe from a more severe angle. Of course, zoo personnel probably would have a problem with my suggestion. ;-)

The water spray is terrific. I just wish you had cloned out the foot.

Had Almost Given Up

I like the sepia tones and the whole idea of the photo. I think the kit is a bit large to be on the top of the photo. Maybe shooting this as a lateral photo would mitigate that aspect of the shot.

This is a fine image. The challenge itself is a weak one, so I can't fault the entrants. Your entry has good color and composition.

This photo has a wonderful clarity about it. Nothing blown out, rich colors, interesting pattern to the flames. ...and a good score by the voters. Well done.

This is a fine photo. I think the only reason it did not score higher is because the frame of reference is fairly straight on. If you could have shot this image from somewhere closer to the building and looking up the drama would have increased. (I know, tough to do with a pond there.) It certainly merits a higher score IMHO.

A well-deserved ribbon. This is one of the best of its kind IMHO. The fish-eye was a good choice of lens. The colors and composition are magnificent.
