What is that blur above the windmill to the left and forefront of the image?
It spoils what is otherwise a damn fine shot, and very nearly would have walked away with a definite 10 from me.

The Fisherman

Very nice capture!
You've gotten the technical and the abstract issues all working together nicely in order to ensure a great image. I'm convinced. *10*

Do you ever get the idea that as a photographer, we're not much different to fishermen?
I do.
All the time.

Good luck!

They Will Use Me Again.. Won't they?

I can see where you were going with this shot, and man, I wish you'd gotten there.
Instead I think you've over-sharpened and then over-blurred it. (Not sure how, but anyway...) The grass is hopelessly over-sharpened, and all of the grey in the image is very blurred. Plus, the file was heavily compressed to cause all of those jpeg jaggies. Try to keep your images as close to the 150Kb limit as you possibly can.
Better luck next time...

This is WAAAAY after the challenge, and I'm guessing that it's "dark and light".
Whatever the case may be, I like the shot.

Washed Up

Looks a bit overly sharpened, but has great composition!
The colours are great, and I like the dark fall-off in the distance.
This is a great example of the fact that you don't need to take a photo of the WHOLE boat (dingy / canoe / Titanic / whatever) to prove to the viewer that they're looking at a boat.
Hope to see you in the top photos!
(The sharpening got you a 9, sadly...)

There's something about the composition which puts me off this photo.
Like it's just TOO straight on, know what I mean?

... The Ride of a Thousand Years

Comment:
The photo is a bit flat for my liking, and you've compressed it so badly that the "jaggies" ruin it even further. Try to get the file size as close to what DP will allow, rather than trying to get it as small as possible.
That will solve the second problem.
The first is a matter of curves and levels.
Good luck!
