Catch Me If You Can

Awesome picture. The person, of course, is not well hidden at all, but the wonderful texture of the trees make up for it. This is worthy of a frame even if it doesnt do well in this particular challenge. Great job!

I almost submitted a similar phot. I like this very much. Good job of hiding the person as the challenge called for while still taking a good natural photo. B+W was a good choice.

I like this alot. This is the only photo I liked where the person was hidden by just showing their leg because it blends in with the tecture and limbs of the tree so well. B+W was an excellent choice. Very interesting perspective. Great job!

Lovely photo. I like the choice of tones and love the contrast. The background in particular is so soft and misty and the bridge is hard and rough and pops out nicely. The person is well hidden, although I knew exactly where to look to find them. I would have moved them somewhere to the side of the bridge or maybe lying in the snowpiles on the middle left or under the bridge. Great job!

Big Bird

I absolutely love this picture. The composition with the water at the very top is excellent and ads slightly to the hidden nature of the person. The DOF is right on and the colors are excellent. I would have voted this higher had the challenge not implied that the person be hidden. This person is definetely not hidden, although at least they aren't the subject of the shot like some of the others. I like that you titled it big bird. I can see how someone would perhaps think they were a bird. Still not hidden to me. Maybe you could have changed that by limiting the dof in the back, but then the picture wouldnt be as good. Anyway, a great picture, forget the challenge; it made you take a great shot and thats what matters!

Nice title. Better than Wilson. Good photograph. Not such a great subject. These familiar pig skinned creatures are generally better captured in motion.

Missing Sunset

Comment:
Yes, the sunset is missing, but I don't see how it would possibly be encorporated anyway, so I guess its better that the sun didnt set in the house just this once. I like the blue on the girls headband and how it mimicks the blue in the vase. Also, the wood tones and grains are nice. I would ger rid of the glass statue (what is it a polar bear?) It somehow doesn't fit the warmth of the rest of the loving photograph. Nice job. Good portrait shot.

He doesn't look ready! Buy him a real gun for pete's sake! jk. Nice use of shadows on the white wall and an interesting compostion that renders nice negative space and line forms. Something is just too drab about the focus and colors. A boy and a photo to be proud of!
