Pure Rock Fury

Perhaps DPCers haven't attended an event quite like this one; I have. Many times, in fact. This picture captures what's there really well, and from an interesting perspective. Composition works well for me, the placement of the singer especially so. The other people don't bother me; in fact, it would be weirder for me without them. That one is going (or being talked to, or whatever) also doesn't distract me. For me, it's all part of the scene, and the chaotic energy of it really works to bring me back into that "kind" of scene, scenes which are always moving. I think this image would get that kind of polar response, on one end from those who experience it, and on the other from those who see it (both are valid, they're just different perspectives which might help to explain your score). My longest comment ever, I think :)

The Demon and the Tree

My initial reaction was the the background area was cool, but I focused on the tree, which is a nice conversion and gives the feeling that you're almost there. The conversion is excellent, with good tones. When I look more, I do see something, but not a goat; more of a skull, I think, and it adds an interesting dimension to the image.

Good setup; I'm might have tried the tiniest bit more depth of field, somewhere across the cutters, but as is -- especially with the red background -- it makes really neat abstract.

Such ingenuity in setting this up; I almost always forget to find an interesting place to put anything I'm setting up. Will think of you next time I do it :) Strong composition here, too, the lines work well the way you've shot it.

Excellent macro, and delightful post processing. Works really well for me!

Cool shot! I never would have guessed what it was. Perfect use of DoF, which allows some of the wires to almost disappear into the background. Great tones (and nice frame, too).

You've captured an awe inspiring view here, with strong lines and wonderful plays of light. I agree with Leroy that the frame is a bit distracting, though it does serve to set the image off in a dramatic way. I like the lines of the rocks, and the way the colors play off of each other. Makes me want to go and visit there!

My first reaction is: delightful. Lovely lighting, perfect title, good composition. Makes me want to lean back, put my laptop down, and just watch the TV.
