The rock may be invisible but the back breaking years of the challenge of taking it to the top of the mountain is apparent

Great image and wonderful complimentary title

The Blanton Arches
by nadiaC

Comment:
Lovely architecture and the person half appearing (and I am guessing from the pose on a mobile phone) gives it great context. Super continuation of the pathway in the open space beyong the arches. Good B&W conversion although to me the horizontal seems slightly off on the shot which is a tad distracting. This could well be the way the arches/pathway are shaped (and if it is I apologise) but if you look at the rear most arch it looks somewhat askew

Wow, stunning landscape and a very good take on the challenge. One of those pictures that makes me envious that I have not had the good fortune to visit this place

Very very clever desat and truly excellent contrasting element image. The chap on the outside feels wonderfully isolated. Outstanding 9

Dog Days

Comment:
So much to like about this shot (not least of all that this game is my favourite fairground game of all time)

Good B&W conversion and hats off for not getting any blow out on the chrome of the seats

Love the fact that the dog and what i assume is his owner actually look alike

Super job

Shopping is Thirsty Work

Very nice candid that meets the challenge spot on. The very soft conversion seems to work well on the darker colours but has (on my monitor) seeme dto create minor areas of blow out on the pure whites most notably the girl in the backgrounds tops)

Nice bottom left to top right diagonal created my the various stairways which loks very good with the top left to bottom right multi diagonals of the stairs themselves

Good colours and the motion blur works very well

A photo that is much more than the sum of its parts
