I like the subject and the framing. The background looks a little 'busy' to me. -6- Mav

I wouldn't have thought of hockey as being graceful, though a different scene might better convey grace - maybe a breakaway, a goalie doing a split to make a save or something like that. If this had been an open ice hit, I'd have given it a 10 just as a bit of irony to the graceful theme. This image falls somewhere in between though, and IMHO doesn't convey grace very well. Also, the exposure and colors are very nice, but the image is a little oversharpened. -6- Mav

Nice perspective - it looks as though the image could be rotated clockwise a little, but that would throw off the vertical nature of the space needle, though a slight rotate might be a good compromise. Nice work -7-

Interesting architecture, but a landscape? That's a bit of a stretch. I like the lens flare highlites, but overall the lighting seems a bit harsh.

Where the Sidewalk Ends

I hope you don't get too many complaints of "blurriness". I really think it adds to this. This has a surreal type look to it, and almost looks as though it could be an airbrushed graphic, rather than a photograph. Was the image this color naturally? It has a nice duotone quality to it. Overall very nice work. -9-

River Heights Welcomes You

Lol, one of my favorites so far. I like the overall clarity of the image, but I think more depth of field would make the sign sharper. It seems a tad blurry and a little underexposed to me - as the "punch line" to the image, I just think it should stand out more. Great job -10-

Irony isn't really obvious here (the title helps a bit), but it is a very intersting shot. -7-

Eternal Irony

Great tone throughout the image, and pretty strong on the topic too. I like the orange/green contrasts especially. -8-

Beauty in Destruction
by Khalid

Comment:
Kind of hard to see the irony here. It looks like a car headlight, but maybe something in the picture to put a firmer emphasis on the "beauty" would help make the connection. The geometry of the wreckage is interesting though.
