Dry old leaf

This is certainly one of the more inventive entries in the challenge. I love the different colours, the crisp edges and the clear reflection. I like the composition, but maybe a little wider DOF would improve the clarity on more of the leaf, or maybe pushing the focus point just slightly further back. Hey, did somebody just get a new macro table? :)

A Loving Home

I got totally the opposite impression of this image from everyone else. This is the sort of scene you see in a movie when there's some phycho walking around outside, about to break in and kill them, or the guy inside has a knife that she doesn't know about, and there's gonna be blood soon. I'm just waiting for something awful to happen with this photo. I can still see what everyone else sees, but I see the unshown contrasting side as the main emotion here. Hmm, does this mean I'm a psycho?

This photo has shades of Lord of the Rings, with her beautiful long hair and this hood. Go to a local costume place, organise a real cloak and staff, go somewhere ethereal, like a green misty forest with a waterfall, and you could get some really magic shots. :) Edit - hey I just checked some of the other shots, and you already have the staff and the location. You gotta get a cloak!

Good to see you are so famous, and everyone immediately knows your work. Not last, but well done to get on the last page.

Nice toned BW. I like it, but others might not score it well due to the not-so interesting subject.

Funny title. :) Probably a good choice to focus on the hair and not the eye, as the hair stands out more.

Not bad for a semi-abstract. What does Hayashi mean?

I'm not so keen on the painted filter, or whatever has been used, because it makes it look very 2-dimensional, but it's not a bad shot.

Great idea. Pity the ball could quite be in focus. I would also go for a slightly closer crop on this one.
