Wonderful job! Congrats on your new PB, it looks great on your profile page.

Observant eye! The disrupted parallel lines and harsh lighting add to my feeling of impending doom. The perspective makes me think it might be the snit of a vengeful deity. Or, perhaps the photographer merely dropped the lithograph. I want to tell the lady(man) to walk faster. Maybe even run...

Also, great technicals for 720 pixels - this would be an easy photo to screw up in processing.

A fantastic illusion. Subtler than a Banksy (at least the ones I've seen), but with more substance. If the photographer is also the artist, then this must be cutout. If not, then this is still a great find, well seen and captured. I'll score this a 10, though I doubt if I'll vote on 20%, so my vote probably won't count. Anyway, I'm guessing you don't care much about scores.

I don't know how I've missed this classic...

Sometimes a not-so-pretty picture has a way of making others pause and gain appreciation for what is important. Thanks.

I didn't get this far in voting but would have given this my highest mark for it's beauty and symbolism. I want to see the rest of this calendar.

Congratulations, Joe. A surreal, minimalistic beauty, something difficult to convey at the 640 px size limit.

Congratulations on the Yellow, Irene! It's great to see the same patience you use in your kitchen creations pay off outdoors. I especially like how the slightly tilted horizon and the leaning tree transforms this swan's figurative "uphill battle" into a literal one.

The processing/color choices makes me think this might be Skew's. I particularly love the eyes and the artist's sig at the bottom right.
Exceptional.
