Paradise Sunset

Nice picture and sunset. Two slight criticisms: 1) need to work the horizontal, unless you were trying to give the illusion that you are on a boat (in which case, don't do that), and 2) just a little too over sharpened - very noticable by the hanging plant. Straighten it out and soften it up and you'll have an outstanding shot (IMO).

This is a very nice picture, but the colors are a little too saturated - the blue in the sky is just out of whack and not realistic.

Ha, this looks like it was fun to put together! I would have darkened it up just a bit, the faces are a little bright and washed out. The competition is pretty steep as well for this challenge, so I'm sure how this will score - but I thought it was creative - and fun!

This is a great "perspective" picture. It's just a little over sharpened for my liking.

Lace? No, that's my cat Binky! I'd swear they were the same cat! :-) Great picture! Perfect lighting, DOF, great colors in the pic - I like it!

Right in the action

There were a number of football pictures in this challenge, but this was my favorite - it really brings you into the action! The focus, clarity and sharpness of on the eyes is great! The colors are rich, stop action - perfect. Nicely done!

This is a great shot! Very classic look to it. My only criticism would be in the "presentation" of the picture. I would have put a border of some type around it, to really focus you into the shot. Unfortunately, the mid-tones get muted with the gray background of this web site. If the background were black, this picture would really pop! Just something to think about when previewing future entries - i.e., how does the picture present on the web page. Great picture though! Love it!

Nice capture, good cropping - you kinda get the essence of the man. My only gripe is that it looks a little too over processed in PS, doesn't look natural IMO. But that's just me, I'm not a big fan of extensive post processing. Very nice picture though! <6>

Nice work on the curves and saturation - the colors really pop! LIttle over burned in the upper left corner.
