Congrats for your very tacky shot (although I'm still not sure about the translation to German).
Was one of my favorits and I knew it was impossible to beat: right on the intention of the challenge and very well made!
Thumb up!

Of course you have to go to the families living in the house and congrat them too!!

While I do like the pose, the color and sharpness, I do have problems with the too soft skin: looks a little unnatural to me.
Otherwise a great portrait.

LOL! Very funny, also the title. And it's tacky! The background is a little confusing: too many items to look at. Still, one of the best IMO

I really like the action in this one, very well captured. Also that almost everything beside the feets of the horses is sharp is great. The background disturbs a little but that wasn't in your hands probably. Good luck

You have to tell us how you did that!
Very creative. Light could be a little softer to reduce the reflexions and thus allow to increase the overall brightness. Also the the surface the poor pig stands on should be without any disturbances.
Anyhow, very well done and good luck to you.

Veryy artistc aproach to the topic. I like that!
Would have been nice to have at least a tiny part les blurred. I also thing that the addition of a border might be good on this one. A 8 from me.

Great combination of stoped and ongoing motion in this one. Also very joyfull. To me a little bright though and cropped too tight at the bottom. 8 from me.

I like the great combination of movment with stopped motion, very well thought.
The cars and road in the miror are also well focused and sharp.
Does need a little more contrast IMO and the border isn't that good: it's not necessary here. Good Luck

Fountain of Youth

I do have three problems with this image:
1. To me it is more 'stopped action' rather then action itself.
2. It''s another water drop image as there are plenty of.
3. I only can give you a 10 for it, because the admins didn't increase the scale for you submission further up.

Honestly: even if the challenge topic would be 'still life' or 'Show NO Water' I would give it a 10.
It's extremely creative and a joy to look at. The composition is excellent, especially how you worked with the dark hair as part of the border and black background. The model is just beautiful and naturally looking. Like her smile very much and the clear haircut makes it too.
Everything is crisp and clear, especially her face and of course the water fountain.
But all these more technical aspects don̢۪t make the image, it̢۪s the creativity that makes it so special.
So to me for sure the winner and one of the 'All-Time-Best' at DPC.
