The O is rising

wow I really liked the shot and then I saw the horses and liked it even more. What a brilliantly captured moment. I would almost say it doesn't work for the challenge except for the fact that the bow is so perfect I can almost imagine the full circle...

very nice find! love the textures and bokeh in the background. I think the focus is throwing me... like my eyes expect it to be in the center but its more like in the bottom left corner. In any case, great shot!

holy wow! great find! I don't see what is going on with that tree! lol. I feel like the tone and lack of contrast will bring down the score on this one. If you could have darkened the tree trucks to make the letters stand out more and provide more contrast I think I would be a better shot.

Unmoved by Tides

Hmm. Uh oh! The tides aren't a person. You get a negative 5! Woops. Sorry. Left over angst from the forum discussion. ;) No this is actually a nice shot and I think it fits the theme. Honestly I think they should have just made the challenge "Immovable" and the description "N/A" and we'd be a lot better off. Now as far as the image itself. The colors are great! But there seems to be something off. I think the boat really isn't the subject as it should be and there is a lot of dark area that really doesn't do the image well on the right side. I see you probably had to keep most of it in to get that beautiful sky in though. A different angle when the shot was taken would have done you well, but I think the angle that would have been best would probably have put you in the water. Possibly a solution would be a tighter crop with the boat in the bottom left 3rd and the brightest point in the sky at the top right 3rd kind of balancing each other out...

Sorry for the brick of text. :)

wow... this has a really strange feel to it. She's like an angel and her expression seems real to me. I like it a lot though I think the editing could be reworked some. I think the composition is kind of like a snapshot and the figure could have been made a little darker to hide some of the grain and provide more contrast (but with everyone having different monitors, maybe it looked like that to you, it's happened to me before!)

This is a pretty cool shot. I suspect you are going to be getting a lot of DNMCs though since both objects are very movable. I get that it is a struggle but I don't think it really fits. I think as far as composition you could have moved the cars towards the bottom of the frame, that much foreground is unnecessary and I find myself more interested in the crowd than the cars themselves but some of the heads are cut off.

My favorite so far... this might even have been cool with the mill centered.... I like the simplicity of this.
