Congrats Heiða. A shot well worthy of a ribbon! I really like the use of a high ISO.

Pillars I (white border)

Another very strong shot. The aspect is really nice, and although I'm not normally keen on borders the same colour as the shot, this works nicely for me (just dark enough to hold the pic in). I'd possibly have given this a 7. Maybe 8 depending on the competition.

Excellent shot, Kv.. I think I would have chosen a lighter border, possibly white, to improve contrast in the shot. As it is, it would definitely have got a high score from me, probably an 8, maybe 9 with a different border.

Very nice composition. Good job getting the horizon straight whilst focusing on the foreground. There's a nice gradient of colour from bottom to top, which helps draw the eye. I think the main issue is the reeds in the foreground are somewhat unexciting. That said, the shot has a nice depth to it, which helps a lot. I think you produced the best shot you could of the subject, but I think maybe it wasn't the best subjec to choose.

EDIT: At the time I gave this shot a 6.

Interesting use of grain.. Not sure if this was intentional or not, but it definitely adds something to the shot, particularly with the choice of sepia. I like the soft focus, it suits the shot well. Like some of your other shots there's good contrast and brightness. I'm not sure about the composition. I think a longer necklace may have added interest. All in all, good shot, and extra kudos for bravery!

Interesting idea, and well executed.. Thnk I might have tried the whole bottle in shot, possible landscape? Seems to have been a bit oversharpened? (Halo on cork and down LHS of bottle?)
